Taskize has appointed James Pike, former Morgan Stanley managing director as head of business development.
Based in London, Pike brings more than 24 years of knowledge and experience across the securities and derivatives industry to the role. He will be responsible for seeking out new opportunities and to drive forward growth of the Taskize network.
As financial market participants continue to grapple with recent regulatory changes — including Central Securities Derivatives Regulation (CSDR) penalties and Uncleared Margin Rules (UMR) Phase 6 — and prepare to move to T+1, Pike will help Taskize meet the needs of the industry.
Most recently, Pike held the role of EMEA head of client operations and global head of institutional client services at Morgan Stanley.
Prior to this, he was global co-head of equity operations where — across a 17-year period — he held a number of middle office roles in EMEA and Asia covering fixed income and equity businesses.
Philip Slavin, CEO of Taskize, says: “James’s previously held positions make him a valuable source of insight and experience.
“As the industry continues to seek out solutions to reduce resolution times and release resource capacity to drive business forward, James is well positioned to advise on strategy and increase our presence to assist financial institutions, reduce their operational burden and increase operational efficiency through the use of workflow solutions.”
