Cryptocurrency custody provider Brane has bolstered its management team with the appointment of Jerome Dwight as president.
Dwight was formerly CEO of BNY Mellon's Canadian business, and global market head at RBC, where he led the bank's international expansion of corporate and institutional global custody and wealth management services across the Americas and Europe.
With the addition of Dwight to the management team, Brane chairman Adam Miron has become interim CEO.
Miron is the founder and former chief operating officer and chief brand officer of HEXO.
“By recruiting an executive of Jerome Dwight's caliber to our management team, Brane is taking a major step toward realising our vision: providing world-class custody for cryptocurrencies – the world's newest asset class,” Miran says.
Meanwhile, Brane board member and Ontario's 24th Premier Dalton McGuinty, adds: "With Jerome Dwight joining our roster of talented executives, Brane is positioned to become the most trusted partner for clients seeking to understand and unlock the power of the blockchain and crypto assets. Brane is rapidly becoming a Canadian innovation success story positioned to make a global impact in the rapidly evolving blockchain sector."
In November last year, Brane appointed Suzanne Larsen and Matthew Torigian to its board of directors.
