Kennedy joins HSS from Citi Fund Services (Asia) where he was a director for four years. Prior to this he worked as global head of Legal for BISYS in Dublin and in 2006 started and headed the BISYS expansion in to Asia.
Dan Massey, head of Client Management Group, Asia-Pacific for HSS commented: It is a great pleasure to welcome someone of Glenns caliber to the Client Management Group. HSS has a strong reputation for securities services in the alternative funds sector and we intend to keep progressing and improving our offering.
