Risk management firm moves to new premises in Singapore in order to cater for future growth.



A/S Global Risk Management has announced that its Singapore office is moving to new premises as of June 1st 2010 as part of its growth strategy in the region.

"Since we established the office more than one year ago, the client portfolio has increased and in order to ensure future growth possibilies we need larger premises”, said Sales Director Morten Rudebeck Henriksen [pictured].

Rudebeck, who was previously employed at the company's headquarters in Middelfart, Denmark, is heading Global Risk's office in Singapore.

“Singapore is a strategic centre for maritime business and we enjoy the proximity to both suppliers and clients”, said Rudebeck.

“It seems like the worldwide financial crisis is letting go of its grip and we see an increased optimism among our clients.
