Frank Troise replaces Ray Tierney at Broadridge
Last week, Broadridge announced Frank Troise as the new President of Broadridge Trading & Connectivity Solutions and Vice Chairman of Broadridge Capital Markets.
Taking over from Ray Tierney, who is moving into an advisory role after three years at the helm, Frank Troise is set to lead the company’s Trading & Connectivity division into a new era focused on streamlining and enhancing trading operations across the globe.
Broadridge aims to further enhance trading optimization for a wide range of clients including global banks, broker-dealers, and independent trading entities.
Frank Troise is celebrated for his extensive background of over 35 years in trading and technology. His recent role as Co-Chief Executive Officer and Board Member at Pico Quantitative Trading showcased his ability to drive growth and scalability. His career also includes significant leadership positions at Investment Technology Group (ITG), J.P. Morgan, Barclays, and Lehman Brothers, and consultancy roles at Booz Allen and Andersen Consulting (now Accenture).
It was in May 2021 that Broadridge Financial Solutions acquired the provider of cross-asset trading solutions covering the full trade lifecycle in a $2.5 billion deal.
A few months later, under the leadership of Ray Tierney, Itiviti integrated its NYFIX Matching solution with the portfolio, order, and investment management system from Broadridge. That was only the first of many product integrations between Itiviti and Broadridge.
