Global Fintech Firm Makes Triple Appointment In London

The New York-listed technology solutions provider for financial services has expanded its team covering Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

US-headquartered Broadridge Financial Solutions has added three senior executives to its London office.

Kimberly Jewell has been appointed managing director of global accounts and will support Broadridge’s tier-one clients headquartered in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. She joins from SunGard, having previously spent almost a decade in executive client-facing roles at firms including JPMorgan Chase, Fidelity Investments and Banc of America Securities.

Mike Thrower, who brings 20 years' financial markets experience, joins as Broadridge’s head of sales for EMEA. He will head up a team responsible for driving relationships with clients across capital markets, wealth and asset management segments, and for corporations. Thrower was previously global head of sales and account management at Wall Street Systems, a provider of treasury, foreign exchange trade-processing and cross asset back-office services. 

Finally, Peter Morris has been appointed head of revenue and expense management services for the firm's global capital markets segment, and as general manager for revenue and expense management services in EMEA. He brings 30 years’ experience as an operations and technology executive, and has overseen international operations for Nomura Securities, Banc of America Securities, Lehman Brothers, Commerzbank and Cantor Fitzgerald.

“Never has there been a greater need among European and global financial institutions for technology and operations solutions that dramatically increase efficiencies,” said Tim Gokey, chief operating officer at Broadridge. 

“By adding executive talent to the region, we are reinforcing our ability to help multinational clients transform and innovate to strengthen their performance in this rapidly changing market environment.”

Broadridge provides investor communications, securities processing and business process outsourcing solutions. Across the EMEA region, it has offices in the UK, Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Poland and South Africa.
