The AST Group announced that it plans to expand its office location located in Ridgefield Park, New Jersey. The 43,000-square foot office, which opened last August, offers employees numerous amenities including a cafeteria and gym. Over 100 employees currently work out of this location in Overpeck Corporate Centre, which is home to several world-class corporations.

The office has experienced dramatic growth with a 30% increase in staff since opening. AST will soon relocate its AST Equity Plan Solutions employees currently working in the Philadelphia office to this location. This transition will occur in phases over the next several months and allow the group to better leverage the AST infrastructure, centralize operations and further expand its product offering.

The facility provides employees with technology and is conveniently located close to New York City and also minutes away from the Secaucus Junction train station with a shuttle to and from the complex. In addition to augmenting the organization's staff, AST continues to build client relationships and increase its market share. AST has expanded into major markets throughout North America and added a variety of new services, including personal financial planning, investor relations consulting, investment management solutions, and proxy and governance advisory solutions for both public issuers and shareholders.
