LiquidShare, the fintech company created to develop post-market solutions by leveraging distributed ledger technology (DLT), has appointed Jean-Marc Eyssautier as CEO.
Based in Paris, Eyssautier will be in charge of implementing the new strategy and business model as requested by the board as well as running the company on a day to day basis.
On top of LiquidShare’s existing platform for tokenised assets, Eyssautier’s objective is to position LiquidShare as a solution/service provider for the post-market industry.
Inefficient areas that do not have straight through processes, areas with work intensive and no value added tasks such as reconciliations among many parties, and poor distribution of information to stakeholders are areas where LiquidShare’s DLT/blockchain solutions should prove most valuable and safe.
Eyssautier joins LiquidShare from CACEIS where he most recently served as director of public affairs.
He has 25 years of experience in the asset servicing industry. He started his career at Banque de France before joining Sicovam SA (now Euroclear France).
At Sicovam, he held positions as project manager for RGV, head of sales and deputy managing director.
He joined CDC IXIS in 2001 as head of operations. When IXIS IS merged with CAIS in 2006, he was appointed managing director of CACEIS Bank Paris.
In October 2008, Eyssautier became chief risk and compliance officer for CACEIS and a member of the executive committee. At CACEIS he also served as senior advisor for the general management.
Eyssautier comments: “Thanks to the huge expertise of the whole team in developing innovative solutions and building on the existing platform, I am very confident that we can be the provider of choice for many players of our industry looking for cost effective, secure and easy to roll out solutions based on DLT.”
Anthony Attia, chairman of the board at LiquidShare, says: “Jean-Marc Eyssautier is a highly regarded post-trade professional with an impressive career and I am confident that he will lead LiquidShare to a successful expansion.”
LiquidShare was created in 2017 by AFS Group, BNP Securities Services, CACEIS, Caisse des Dépôts, Euroclear, Euronext, S2iEM and Societe Generale.
The fintech harnesses DLT to bring further speed, efficiency, transparency and security to core operations of capital markets.
In 2021, LiquidShare’s roadmap is to further expand the reach of the solution.
It reveals that in the coming weeks, it will test with Banque de France and 13 partnering financial institutions the settlement of transactions in financial instruments against Central Bank Digital Currency based on end-to-end DLT processing.
