Apex Group Ltd. (“Apex Group”), a leading global financial services provider with over $3.5 trillion in assets serviced, announces its participation in BlackRock’s Aladdin Provider network by introducing a new outsourced operating model solution tailored for private credit managers.
The Aladdin Provider network is an established community of the world’s largest asset servicers who integrate directly with the Aladdin® investment management platform to deliver more seamless, automated, and transparent operational workflows.
By leveraging a shared Aladdin technology architecture, managers can scale outsourced workflows more efficiently and reduce the complexity typically associated with multi‑system operating models.
This collaboration enables asset managers to integrate Apex Group’s comprehensive servicing capabilities with their own Aladdin platform, maintaining direct control of their technology environment while benefiting from Apex Group’s expertise in private credit fund administration, middle-office operations, and loan servicing. It also marks the growing and continuing collaboration between Apex Group and BlackRock, with middle‑office and related services expanding the global and product reach for both firms.
The outsourcing model reflects Apex Group’s commitment to delivering flexible, technology-enabled solutions that enhance efficiency, reduce processing time, limit NAV errors, and reduce manual intervention across investment workflows.
Peter Hughes, Founder and CEO of Apex Group, commented:
“Apex Group is proud to be the inaugural service provider to co‑develop a transformational operating model for private credit middle‑office workflows on the Aladdin Provider network. We support our clients in 52 countries and deliver daily loan and portfolio valuations. By integrating these capabilities with the Aladdin architecture, our clients gain a more transparent operating model with tighter controls, fewer manual processes, and lower operational risk across the credit lifecycle.”
Tarek Chouman, Global Head of Aladdin Client Business, at BlackRock, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Apex Group to the Aladdin Provider network. Their servicing capabilities across private credit and other assets will help our clients achieve greater operational efficiency and transparency—all part of ever more critical whole portfolio strategies.”
