Senior Macquarie executive signs with Iress
Macquarie Group Banking and Financial Services Group Executive Director Matthew Rady has moved to Iress to take on a newly created role as Financial Markets Group Executive and will head the group’s global financial markets business.
Rady, who will start with Iress from today, leaves Macquarie after 18 years with the group - the last three spent heading Macquarie’s banking and financial services group in North America based in Toronto.
He will report to Iress chief executive Andrew Walsh and will oversee the provision of market data and trading software and services to institutional and retail clients in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Canada, South Africa and the United Kingdom.
Walsh said the new role would also focus on expanding Iress’ financial markets business and was a response to growth opportunities identified by the business.
He stated that Rady was recruited due to his “impressive international and local experience” which included developing and growing a range of businesses and managing their international operations.
“The breadth and depth of this experience, including in financial services product innovation and technology-enabled, customer-focused roles, makes him ideally suited to this position and will bring an invaluable perspective to our existing business delivery and global growth,” Walsh said.
