Aztec Group, a leading international fund and corporate services
provider, has appointed a Head of U.S. Markets to lead its offering
across North America.
Scott Kraemer has joined the fund administrator in
its Philadelphia office, bringing vast experience across
alternative markets in the Americas.
“The U.S. represents a huge opportunity for Aztec
as the single biggest jurisdiction for private markets. I’m
delighted to welcome Scott to lead the business in the U.S.,” said
Aztec Group CEO Kathryn Purves.
“His experience not just in private equity, but
across alternative asset classes more broadly, coupled with his
knowledge of the Americas, will be invaluable as we look to
accelerate our growth in this important market.”
Before joining Aztec, Kraemer’s most recent role
was as Vistra’s Head of Alternative Investments for the Americas,
which included New York, Dallas, Toronto, Atlanta, and the Cayman
Islands.
“Aztec’s phenomenal growth is a testament to their
excellent client service and the people who deliver it. I’m excited
to be a part of that as we look to further expand on our footprint
in the U.S., and to be joining a talented and growing team across
Philadelphia and New York,” said Kraemer.
Aztec entered the U.S. with its first office in
Philadelphia in 2021 and has grown strongly since then.
Kraemer’s arrival marks a pivotal moment in Aztec’s
growth, reflecting the Group’s ongoing commitment to significantly
enhance its U.S. presence and drive innovation through substantial
investments in technology, particularly in the areas of data and
analytics.
Over the past year, Aztec Group has also expanded
to Ireland and made substantial investments in AIFM while also
strengthening teams serving the Real Assets and Private Credit
asset classes – further expanding Aztec’s offering as a
full-service fund and corporate services provider.
