AlfaSec Advisors co-founder Roger Harrold will become HornbyChapman's chief representative for Asia, the firms have announced.
AlfaSec and HornbyChapman formed a strategic alliance in 2014 to improve asset servicing firms' access to experienced industry practitioners in Asia.
Harrold, who was previously global head of direct securities services at Deutsche Bank, will act as HornbyChapman's chief scout in Asia, where the recruitment firm is planning to hire additional resources for its teams in both Hong Kong and Singapore.
Speaking of the appointment, HornbyChapman managing director Paul Chapman said: “I'm truly delighted at Roger Harrold's appointment. His tremendous industry experience and reputation, especially in Asia, will be hugely complementary to our existing knowledge base and will allow us to further leverage our solid market share in our chosen markets.”
