ICAP-owned Traiana, the provider of post-trade technology, has announced that Roy Saadon, one of the co-founders of Traiana, will assume the newly created role of Head of EMEA, effective immediately.
Roy Saadon will move to London to lead Traianas further expansion in Europe and other regions, with focus on both foreign exchange as well as the companys expansion into new asset classes, including CFD equity swaps and exchange-traded derivatives.
Traianas presence in Europe has grown from two people about three years ago to well over 30 today.
Traiana has seen dramatic growth in Europe in the past few years and we expect this growth to continue in the years to come, says Gil Mandelzis, CEO, Traiana. Roys appointment highlights our commitment to London and Europe as a whole as a major centre of the financial world.
Saadon takes on the role after 11 years at Traiana in New York and Tel Aviv. Saadon most recently served as General Manager for Traiana Harmony, where he has been responsible for the overall market and technical direction of the Harmony product line for the past three years.
We have seen exponential growth in our European business which has required us to step up significantly our presence and organisation in the region, says Saadon. I am excited about the opportunity to consolidate our European presence and offering, and to further grow it over the next few years to meet the enormous demand and opportunity that exists for Traiana’s services.”
