Following Vistra’s announcement of the deal in September 2017, the Corporate Services business will now be rebranded under the Vistra umbrella.

‘Corporate Services’ provides management and administration of Special Purpose Vehicles and asset holding companies to banks, non-bank financial institutions and corporates. The business specialises in the administration of structures for:

Structured Finance transactions (Collateralized Loan Obligations, Collateralized Debt Obligations, Securitisations, Mortgage-Backed Securities)

Aircraft Leasing

Commercial Real Estate holding

Investment Funds (mainly private equity and real estate).

Operating in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Jersey, Mauritius, Cayman Islands and the US, the business employs 139 staff globally, with existing Vistra offices combining with the teams in these jurisdictions.

Vistra alternative investments group managing director Onno Bouwmeister said: “We are pleased to have entered the final stage of completion for all of Deutsche Bank’s Corporate Services to become part of the Vistra brand.

“This is a significant opportunity for Vistra as we broaden our presence in seven of our existing locations across Europe, the Cayman Islands and Mauritius, providing further scale and expertise in our jurisdictions.

“Vistra has experienced significant growth in the Capital Markets sector with the Deutsche Bank acquisition and that of Canyon CTS earlier this year, creating exciting new potential for our Alternative Investments division.

“I look forward to working with the Vistra teams throughout our new offices to continue to build on our achievements and take Vistra to the next level.”
