About MJ Hudson
MJ Hudson is a one-stop-shop specialist service provider to the US$100 trillion plus asset management industry, with a focus on its fastest growing segment, alternative investments (which includes private equity, venture capital, real estate and hedge funds).
As outlined at IPO in December 2019, our growth strategy is to develop and acquire new products and services that are needed by our core customer base of asset managers and institutional investors and to extend this customer base in the key markets of North America and Europe. Our strategy benefits from the underlying expansion of the alternative investment subsector and the continuing and growing need for outsourcing and specialist advice as regulation and competition makes operating more challenging for our clients.
Founded in 2010 by CEO Matthew Hudson (a lawyer and former alternative assets fund manager), we have grown quickly to now support more than 1,000 clients, including 18 of the FTSE 100. Our business is transatlantic, with clients clustered around the major asset management centres of Europe and North America. Our team of 240 works out of 11 offices in those same centres.
