Mike Clarke has announced he will be leaving Deutsche Bank and the financial services industry in August.
The global head of Product Management in Securities Services at the bank will be moving to New Zealand as part of what he calls his ‘pre-retirement’.
Clarke has spent over three decades in the financial services industry and worked at ADP Wilco. Broadridge and Pershing before spending close to 17 years at Deutsche Bank.
Announcing the news on LinkedIn, Clarke said: “Firstly, the last nearly 17 years in Deutsche Bank. I can only thank them for the faith they have shown in me, the opportunities they have given me, and for allowing me the freedom for my own personal version of ‘growth within a controlled environment’.
“Secondly, I have had the great pleasure to have met and worked with some fantastic people over the years, and whether you have been a colleague, client, competitor or service provider, I consider many of you friends above all else.”
