Komainu, a regulated digital asset custody services provider, has appointed Suzanne Hubble as chief operating officer and chief financial officer.
Based in the London office, Hubble brings with her extensive experience in the banking and financial services sector that will enable the firm to better tailor its products to institutions in search of digital asset custody services.
Komainu says it has seen its assets under custody more than double since the end of 2020 and Hubble’s main role will be to further develop and execute the company’s growth strategy.
Hubble has 20 years of industry experience and she joins Komainu from HSBC where she was instrumental in the delivery of their Bounce Back Loan platform.
Prior to HSBC, she worked as Citi Bank’s European head of over the counter OTC Client Clearing and the design and delivery of ICE Clear Europe’s CDS clearing house.
Henson Orser, president and acting CEO of Komainu, comments: “Suzanne Hubble is a widely respected, seasoned business strategist, and her unique and extensive experience in the institutional banking landscape is why she has been selected to further advance the business.”
“Hubble will play a pivotal role in expanding Komainu’s reach in the industry, and I look forward to collaborating with her directly to drive our ambitious growth plans. Our focus is to continue to innovate and expand upon our current services and her expertise will be key to this process.”
Meanwhile, Hubble says: “Since its launch in 2020, Komainu has established a great business model and talented team that is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the evolving financial ecosystem as institutions move closer to fully adopting digital assets.”
“I look forward to advancing our operational excellence and further establishing our presence in the space as the best-in-class provider of custody services for institutions,” adds Hubble.
Earlier this year, Komainu completed a $25M Series A funding round.
