This acquisition strengthens Bolder’s capabilities in blockchain and crypto fund administration through next-gen financial infrastructure.

Hong Kong, 16 July —Bolder Group has completed the acquisition of Soroban Fund Services, a strategic move that positions Bolder further at the forefront of digital fund servicing. Known for its innovation-first mindset and deep technological expertise, Soroban set new standards in digital asset fund servicing, compliance automation and real-time fund transparency.

Soroban’s digital infrastructure, combined with Bolder’s international reach and deep regulatory knowledge, provides better support for fund managers operating in the crypto, DeFi, Web3, and tokenised ecosystems. This recent development ensures the Group will deliver end-to-end solutions fully aligned with the demands of digital-native investment vehicles.

Yuky Yu, a pioneer in the digital asset space and founder of Soroban, will join Bolder as the Global Lead of Digital Asset Service Delivery. In this role, she will spearhead the organisation’s digital asset strategy by integrating Soroban’s advanced systems and capabilities into Bolder’s international service model.

According to Sükrü Evrengün, CEO of Bolder Group: “This is a transformational step in our growth strategy. Soroban brings unmatched domain expertise in digital assets and blockchain-based fund services. With Yuki’s leadership, we are uniquely positioned to serve clients navigating the fast-evolving digital economy with confidence and agility.”

With Yu at the helm, Soroban has earned a distinction as a trusted partner for managers of cryptocurrency, tokenised assets and blockchain-native investment vehicles.

“Soroban was created to serve forward-thinking fund managers at the edge of financial innovation. Joining Bolder Group allows us to scale that mission globally—bringing technology-led solutions, operational excellence and client-centric service to a broader, more diverse audience,” said Yu.

The acquisition is effective as of 16 July 2025, with integration initiatives already underway.
