To help support the firm’s rapid expansion, Portware has bolstered its global sales team, adding four industry veterans in New York, London and Hong Kong.

New team members include Marcus Chan, head of Asia-Pacific sales, who will be based in the firm’s Hong Kong office. Prior to joining Portware, Chan was the regional sales manager for the Asia-Pacific region at Orc Software, where he worked closely with both buy- and sell-side firms on advanced electronic trading initiatives.

Alan Price has been appointed regional sales manager for Europe. Price joins Portware from Linedata Services where he was head of front office sales, focusing on order management systems and pre- and post-trade compliance.

Tim Kemp, head of European sales engineers, brings eight years of business analysis and pre-sales engineering experience to the company. He joins Portware from SimCorp and Advent Software where he supported institutional asset and private client managers.

Joe Gresia, senior sales executive, a 20-year veteran of Wall Street joins Portware from JP Morgan Chase’s Electronic Client Services division, where he was the vice president of sales. Gresia’s tenure at JP Morgan began when the firm acquired Neovest, where he served as vice president of institutional sales.

The new team members will all be reporting into Jim Feingold, global head of sales, Portware.
