Alan Flanagan has been named head of global product management at BNY Mellon Alternative Investment Services. He will continue to be based in Dublin and reports to Brian Ruane, BNY Mellon AIS chief executive officer.
"The alternatives industry will see continued progress in 2011 and will look to trusted providers like BNY Mellon to service the array of complex new funds, structures and strategies being introduced," said Ruane.

"Alan will lead a global team focused on leveraging and integrating capabilities across our business – from administration and risk reporting to cash and collateral management. New offerings like prime custody and rising demand for middle-office outsourcing will also drive growth in the years ahead," Ruane added.
