In May, The MFWire reported that fund service provider Foreside was planning to start a Chicago office. This month, the Portland, Maine-based firm formally opened its Windy City outpost.

Susan Chamberlain joined Foreside's compliance services team and heads up the Chicago office located at One South Dearborn, Suite 2100.

The new office "brings us closer to our clients and give us an opportunity to expand our business development efforts in the area," said David Whitaker, chief operating officer of Foreside Financial Group, in an interview with The MFWire.

Chamberlain formerly served as chief operating officer and chief compliance officer at Quantlab Capital Management, an RIA managing private and proprietary funds in Houston. She also served as chief operating officer at Columbine Capital Services, a provider of qualitative research to the institutional investment community.

Foreside in May opened an office in Jersey City. It also has offices in Boston and Columbus, Ohio. Foreside has more than 60 employees.
