Sionic has appointed Sascha Calisan as an asset servicing director, leading the distribution services capability.
Calisan has more than 25 years of experience in the financial industry, beginning her career at Morgan Stanley. She has since spent several years with RBC, before moving to Northern Trust in 2008.
Calisan held a number of senior roles with the bank, most recently as senior vice president and head of distribution support.
Commenting on her appointment, Calisan says: “Throughout my career, I have brought together people and ideas to solve common challenges. The fact that distribution is typically a very fractured part of our industry offers a real opportunity to think laterally, reduce complexity, improve efficiency and give clients (and their clients) the sophisticated simplicity they increasingly expect.”
Ashley Sheen, managing partner in Sionic’s asset management practice, adds: “Sascha is highly regarded, experienced and well-networked. Her arrival will enable us to help even more clients to tackle their strategic and operating model challenges in distribution and client experience.”
