Alpadis, an international provider of bespoke trust and corporate services, has acquired Ingenia Consultants, a leading compliance service provider in Singapore. This strategic acquisition, completed through a share exchange, aims to expand Alpadis’ services for boutique and medium-sized financial institutions across Asia and the Middle East.
The acquisition will see Ingenia Consultants’ operations integrated into Alpadis, launching a new Regulatory Compliance Services division. Rolf Haudenschild, Co-Founder of Ingenia Consultants, will lead this division as Managing Director and Head of Regulatory Compliance Asia. “This is a strategic joining of forces rather than a simple acquisition,” said Alain Esseiva, Chairman and CEO of Alpadis. “We share a common culture and many clients, and together we will offer a more comprehensive and integrated service proposition to financial institutions.”
Ingenia Consultants, known for its compliance advisory, internal audit, and MAS licensing support, serves over 100 boutique and mid-sized financial institutions. The acquisition enhances Alpadis’ offerings, providing end-to-end support from corporate set-up to compliance, and sets the stage for regional expansion into markets such as the UAE, Hong Kong, and Malaysia.
Haudenschild emphasised the partnership’s long-term nature, stating, “Together we will strengthen our ability to help clients navigate complex regulatory environments as they grow across Asia and beyond.” The transition of Ingenia’s 20-member team into Alpadis will bring additional regulatory expertise to the firm’s Southeast Asia operations.
Alpadis continues to invest in AI and innovative technologies to enhance service delivery, aiming to provide clients with tailored, efficient, and future-ready solutions.
