London based Professional Nick Garrow Joins Trading Technologies as EVP Multi-Asset and Buy Side

Trading Technologies International, Inc. (TT), an international provider of “high-performance” professional trading software, infrastructure and data solutions, recently announced that London-based industry veteran Nick Garrow has joined the firm in the new position of EVP Multi-Asset & Buy Side.

Garrow has over 20 years of senior management experience in capital markets and prime brokerage, “leading significant global technological and operational transformation of businesses ranging from a tier-1 bank, to brokerage and clearing firms, to an exchange and fintech company.”

Garrow reports to TT CEO Keith Todd and “joins the firm’s leadership team.”

Serving since 2019 as Global Head of IT and Operations for Societe Generale (SG) Prime Services in London, Garrow will now “lead TT’s expansion into new asset classes beyond exchange-traded derivatives and a range of new services for the buy-side community, with the firm’s Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) TT® platform as the foundation.”

Todd stated:

“We’re thrilled to have Nick join us at this very exciting time as we build on the strength of our technology and seek to expand our offering through partnerships, acquisitions and organic enhancements to our platform. He is already contributing a wealth of ideas based on his experience as both a seller into the market and discerning consumer of services. Nick brings passion, vision, leadership, and tremendous talent and knowledge to this important management role.”

Garrow remarked:

“TT has always been at the forefront of innovation in this industry. The delivery of the new SaaS platform, combined with the ambition, independence and investment that 7RIDGE brings, puts TT in an ideal position to expand its range of services and solutions. I’ve known Keith and many of the extremely talented people at TT for many years. I am proud to join the team and convinced that TT will be a driving force in bringing to market the most compelling multi-asset trading solution that our customers seek.”

Garrow started his career “at Paris-based futures exchange MATIF (now Euronext).”

Over the course of seven years, he worked in the Paris and London offices, “building the exchange’s pan-European membership and electronic trading connectivity.”

From 1999 to 2005, he served “as Global Head of Sales for trading software firm Patsystems in London.”

He then “joined global futures commission merchant (FCM) Calyon Financial as European Head of Electronic Trading Sales.”

In 2009, Garrow was “promoted to Global Head of Electronic Trading Technology for Newedge, the multi-asset FCM created by the merger of Calyon Financial and FIMAT.”

In that role, he led “a significant overhaul and upgrade of the firm’s electronic trading platforms across exchange-traded derivatives, equities, foreign exchange (FX) and fixed income, working from Chicago and London.”

In 2014, after the acquisition of Newedge by SG, Garrow was “elevated to Global Head of Cross-Asset Technology in London for SG Prime Services, integrating the listed derivatives and cash equity trading technology for the agency business.”

He took over all of the pre-trade and post-trade technology “for the Prime Services business in 2017, leading a team of more than 300 people.”

In 2019, he “assumed responsibility for all global IT and operations for the agency business, driving a significant overhaul of the bank’s legacy technology and a new global operating model for the more than 600-person IT and operations teams.”

As covered, Trading Technologies “creates professional trading software, infrastructure and data solutions for a wide variety of users, including proprietary traders, brokers, money managers, Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs), hedge funds, commercial hedgers and risk managers.”

In addition to providing access to the world’s major international exchanges and liquidity venues via its TT trading platform, TT “offers domain-specific technology for cryptocurrency trading and machine-learning tools for trade surveillance.”
