London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) has appointed Nikhil Rathi as the new CEO of London Stock Exchange PLC, replacing Alexander Justham, who announced his intention to leave the group earlier this year.

Rathi joined LSEG as chief of staff in May 2014 and also serves as director of international development – a role that he will continue.

Before this, he was director of the financial services group at the UK Treasury. He held various positions here for 11 years, and was involved in representing the UK’s financial interests in the European Union and internationally.

Xavier Rolet, CEO of LSEG, said: “During the last three years, [Justham] has led our UK business, which enjoys a strong market share as one of the leading trading and listing venues in the world. I would like to warmly extend my personal thanks to [Justham] for his great contribution.”

He added: “[Rathi] has played a key role driving the group’s strategy in key markets, such as China and India as well as supporting key integration projects across the group.”

“I’m confident that under [Rathi’s] leadership, London will continue to be the premier global market for both domestic and international companies that are attracted to London’s unrivalled international investor base and deep pool of liquidity when raising capital to grow their businesses.”
