Etrading Software, a global provider of technology-led solutions, has appointed James Haskell as chief operating officer and David Lane as chief technology officer.
Based in London, the two hires aid the expansion of the firm's technology platform as it welcomes partnerships on new products and services.
Haskell was business operations officer at Etrading Software before stepping up to his new position.
He had joined the firm from Goldman Sachs, where he worked for 13 years in its London, New York and Hong Kong offices, most recently as executive director.
Now positioned as CTO, Lane previously acted as product owner at Natwest before joining Etrading Software in 2020, and was programme manager for RBS between 2015 and 2020.
Commenting on his new position, Haskell says: “I have been working with the team at Etrading Software for some time as we design, build and operate technology solutions allowing clients to keep full governance and control using transparent and vendor-neutral solutions.
“I am excited to continue the expansion in this relatively newer space for Etrading, where we are increasingly responding to requests to build the technology platforms in an equity partnership with our clients, so we can offer efficient products which are tailored to clients’ specific needs and ensure we are aligned with the growth and success of our partners.”
Lane adds: “I am looking forward to working with existing and new clients in building products through partnerships, which bring efficiencies to the market in even more asset classes. We will be working more in the equity space to deliver exciting new solutions, and I am delighted to be representing Etrading Software, as CTO, to push through best technology developments that are right for each use case.”
