Nasdaq has appointed Andrew Murray as Senior Vice President of Financial Technology for Asia-Pacific, strengthening its regional leadership as financial institutions increase investment in advanced trading and market infrastructure.
Based in Singapore, Murray will oversee regional business development initiatives, strengthen relationships with financial technology clients and support the expansion of Nasdaq's technology solutions across key Asia-Pacific markets.
Murray brings more than 30 years of experience in financial technology, having previously held senior leadership positions at FIS, Calypso Technology, SunGard and Wall Street Systems. His background includes enterprise financial software, trading systems and technology solutions serving global financial institutions.
The appointment comes alongside the relocation of Bob McCooey, Nasdaq's Vice Chairman and Head of International Listings, to Singapore, reinforcing the company's strategic focus on the region.
