Philip Barnes has joined the executive team of big xyt, the independent provider of smart data and analytics solutions to the global trading and investment community.
Barnes will drive expansion in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region in his new role as managing director, head of business development APAC.
Most recently, Barnes worked at Amaggio Partners where, as founding partner and chief commercial officer, he established a strategic business development and management consultancy servicing APAC.
Prior to that, Barnes held several senior APAC management positions. At NYSE Euronext he was head of global derivatives business development and before that, head of sales for Fidessa, and head of sales for Sungard GMI.
Barnes was relocated to Singapore from London in 1995 by Thomson Financial where he was regional managing director for the global markets business.
During his 25-year career in Asia covering strategy, business development, and new business sales to the global financial community, Barnes’ network and experience in Asia are key in accelerating big xyt’s growth in APAC.
The appointment of Barnes follows soon after the firm’s appointment of Jenny Chenin New York to service the North American market.
Barnes comments: “I’m delighted to join the excellent and highly skilled team at big xyt. I have been watching their rapid growth over the past few years and have been impressed to see the Liquidity Cockpit and TCA (execution analytics) solutions being adopted by leading exchanges and Tier 1 firms across Europe and the US.”
“I’m looking forward to driving expansion in the APAC region and introducing these advanced solutions to my network. I believe big xyt is well positioned for excellent growth in the years ahead as the leading data analytics and execution analysis solution for the global trading community,” adds Barnes.
Robin Mess, CEO and co-founder of big xyt, says: “I’m pleased to welcome Philip Barnes to our team. During his career Barnes has gained invaluable experience in the financial services industry and his APAC market knowledge and network will be of tremendous value to big xyt as we continue to expand internationally, and as we develop our global capabilities in partnership with our clients further.”
While big xyt has historically been recognised as a European data analytics partner, these international appointments, coupled with developments soon to be announced on their global coverage and capabilities, are putting the firm on the map as a major global industry participant n the data analytics and execution analytics space.
