London Derivatives Exchange has hired its second senior manager in two months by appointing former LSE Group and KPMG clearing expert Kiri Self as its chief operating officer.
LDX, which offers a range of trading services across listed products and digitised assets, said in a statement on Wednesday that Self had joined as COO with immediate effect.
Self said: “LDX’s vision for a more efficient alternative for the capital raising community, and a more efficient trading environment for corporates, investors and traders using digital assets and securities is hugely appealing to me.”
VJ Angelo, CEO of LDX, added: “Kiri will help develop LDX in our ambition to provide a regulated framework alongside new technologies that will reduce costs in fees, and a reduction of capital usage, across the LDX suite of products.”
Self has vast experience, having worked most recently as an associate partner at Drebbel Technology Brokers and an operations manager at Clearmatics, a London-based blockchain firm.
She has also worked as a manager at Societe Generale’s broker outsourcing service, the head of exchanges and market infrastructure at consultancy KPMG, in post-trade services at LSE Group and as the head of operations at NYFIX International, a trading tech firm.
