Aquis Exchange has announced the appointment of John Greenan as Director, Technologies.
In this role, Mr Greenan will be responsible for leading the sales and contracting activities for the company’s proprietary exchange infrastructure technology and services.
Mr Greenan relocates to London for the role, and draws on over 20 years’ experience as the CEO of Alignment Systems: a consultancy providing global electronic trading expertise and strategic insight to investment banks, asset management companies, hedge funds, stock exchanges, interdealer brokers, trading venues and digital assets businesses. During this time he has worked on four continents and driven adoption of electronic trading over multiple asset classes.

John Greenan, Director, Technologies, said:
“I am thrilled to be joining Aquis at such an exciting time for the company. Within the industry, Aquis is regarded as an excellent choice of technology vendor – not just for its leading matching engine and frequent product innovation, but also for always going above and beyond in the service and solutions that the team provides to their clients.
While consulting I conducted extensive research for a search and selection and selected Aquis to provide a genuine 24×7 capability for a Singapore-based digital exchange. In a manner akin to the great Victor Kiam, I liked the product so much I joined the company! I am looking forward to progressing a strong existing sales pipeline and to working with such a great team.”
