Apex Invest, a prominent financial services provider, has announced the appointment of Philipp Levy as its new global head. Levy, an industry veteran with over three decades of experience, will steer the firm’s capital raising, advisory solutions, and technology initiatives.
The announcement was made during the Apex Invest - Singapore event, underscoring the firm’s commitment to expanding its global footprint and embracing technological advancements. Levy succeeds John Papesh, who remains at the firm with a focus on the Middle East. A spokesperson highlighted that Levy’s mandate involves a stronger emphasis on leveraging technology to enhance Apex’s global network and service offerings.
Levy’s extensive background in the financial sector, particularly in marketing alternative funds to institutional investors, positions him well for this role. Prior to joining Apex Group in May, Levy was instrumental in the growth of Mudrick Capital Management, a $3 billion event-driven and distressed fund, where he served as head of marketing and investor relations. His career spans major financial hubs including New York, London, and Zurich, with a focus on alternative investments for institutional clients.
Apex Group, established in Bermuda in 2003, has grown to support asset managers, allocators, financial institutions, and family offices worldwide. The firm’s leadership change signals a strategic pivot towards integrating digital solutions in the alternative assets space, a move that Levy is set to champion. “Through our global conferences and our innovative portal, Apex Invest will be at the forefront of the digitization process in the alternative assets space,” Levy stated.
Looking ahead, Apex Invest’s embrace of technology under Levy’s leadership aims to fortify its position in the competitive financial landscape. The firm’s proactive approach to digitization is expected to drive significant growth and provide enhanced value to its clients globally. As Levy takes the helm, the industry will be watching closely to see the impact of his vision on the future of alternative asset management.
