The International Capital Market Association (ICMA) has appointed Bryan Pascoe as chief executive, succeeding Martin Scheck, who has held the role since 2009.
Pascoe will formally take up the role on 6 September, meanwhile, during a transition period, Scheck will remain with ICMA in a non-executive capacity as president, reporting to the chief executive.
Pascoe has 28 years of international experience spanning investment and corporate banking in London, Hong Kong and Dubai.
Most recently he was global head of client coverage in HSBC’s Commercial Banking Division, having previously held the role of group treasurer and head of asset, liability and capital management through 2015 and 2016.
Prior to that, Pascoe’s career focused on capital markets as HSBC’s global head of debt capital markets from 2011 to 2015 and global head of debt syndicate before that.
Mandy DeFilippo, chair of the ICMA Board, comments: “I am delighted that we have been able to appoint an individual of Bryan’s reputation and experience to lead the association.”
“On behalf of the board and the association, we feel that he is the right person to succeed Martin and lead ICMA as our new chief executive. We are all looking forward to working with him.”
She continues: “I would like to thank Martin Scheck for his excellent work over the last 12 years. He has led ICMA through an incredibly dynamic and, at times, turbulent period, which has included the global financial crisis, Brexit, and most recently, the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Scheck says: “It has been a privilege to serve ICMA and its members through a period of immense change and growth, both for the association itself and the markets in which it is involved.”
Meanwhile, Pascoe adds: “I am very excited to be joining the ICMA team. The association has a long track-record and history as an agent for positive change and development in the debt capital markets and I look forward to working with colleagues, members and all our stakeholders to further broaden its influence, impact and relevance over the coming period of such great opportunity and critical transformation for the industry.”
