Apex has entered into an agreement to onboard Mercer New Zealand’s fund administration operations. The agreement is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026. Apex has an established fund administration, custody, transfer agency and wealth administration business in New Zealand, with >200 employees providing outsourced administration services across KiwiSaver, superannuation and investment products to over 500 funds. This includes ManCo fund hosting solutions and the InvestNow direct-to-consumer platform. Apex’s technology partner, Novigi, is expanding into New Zealand, building on its long-standing partnership with Apex in Australia. Earlier this year Apex agreed to lift out Mercer’s stand-alone superannuation administration operations in Australia.
