As a result of internal restructuring at Deutsche B枚rse Group, Christoph Hansmeyer will move to the Pre- and Post-Trading division on 1 March to head up key projects.
He moves from a position as managing director of group strategy, M&A and chief of staff at the German financial infrastructure company that he has occupied since 2018. He will be succeeded in this role by J枚rg Pietzner, who was previously head of group investor relations at the group鈥檚 headquarters in Milan.
Commenting on the reorganisation, Deutsche B枚rse Group CEO Theodor Weimer says: 鈥淚鈥檓 reluctant to let Christoph go. In 2018, together with the executive board, we began to open a new chapter for Deutsche B枚rse. If we can draw a positive balance today, after four years, then that is also thanks to Christoph.鈥�
In his previous position, Hansmeyer played a central role in implementing the group鈥檚 Compass strategy, setting out medium-term growth ambitions driven by the industry鈥檚 continuing transition from OTC to exchange-based trading, ESG, moves towards passive investing and digitisation of the financial sector.
A first key landmark in the Compass 2023 strategy was Deutsche B枚rse Group鈥檚 acquisition of shareholder services specialist ISS, a key provider of governance solutions, ESG data and analytics.
In 2020 Clearstream completed the purchase of Ausmaq, the Sydney-based managed funds custodian, from National Australia Bank. Subsequently, it has linked international and Australian market participants via its Vestima funds platform, improving access for international investors to the Australian funds market and enabling Australian investors to access international funds, including alternative funds, via Clearstream鈥檚 global funds network.
Additionally, in June 2021 Clearstream finalised the acquisition of Swisscanto Funds Centre from UBS to create Clearstream Fund Centre, a leading European fund distribution platform with, at that time, close to 鈧�300 billion assets under administration.
鈥淭he development of the post-trading business is one of Deutsche B枚rse鈥檚 central strategic projects in the coming years,鈥� says Weimer.
