The merger, which took effect October 1, 2026, integrates the former United Luxembourg, Equiom Luxembourg, and YT Investor Services. This consolidation bolsters the firm’s local footprint to over 70 employees. While the main corporate and fund services arms have merged, the accountancy firm Your TACS SA—acquired during the YT Group deal—remains a distinct entity under the Hawksford umbrella, continuing to operate under its original name while maintaining regulation by the Ordre des Experts-Comptables.
Hawksford Consolidates Luxembourg Operations Into Single Entity
Jersey-based corporate and fund services provider Hawksford has unified three separate Luxembourg businesses into a single legal entity, Hawksford (Luxembourg) SA. The restructuring follows a 2025 acquisition spree, effectively folding multiple regulatory licenses under the oversight of the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier into one streamlined operation.
Claude Crauser and Sinan Sar, who previously served as co-country managing directors for the United Group in Luxembourg, now lead the combined firm as managing directors for funds and corporate services, respectively. The move reduces the administrative burden of maintaining multiple regulated vehicles with the CSSF, a strategic shift common among private equity-backed firms like STAR Capital-supported Hawksford as they compete for dominance in Europe’s primary fund domicile.
