Andrew’s Blog – Those Thomson Reuters Financial & Risk Appointments in Full

Before we were rudely interrupted by the Christmas holidays – lovely, thanks, and you? – we were speculating about the emerging structure and population of the executive ranks within president David Craig’s new Financial & Risk operating unit of Thomson Reuters, in essence the successor to the former Thomson Reuters Markets. At least some dust has settled since Craig’s December 19 publication of an organisation chart for his group, so we are able to offer some of the highlights.

Andrew’s Blog – The New Thomson Reuters Starts to Take Shape

More on this, but not much more.

As we suggested yesterday, Peter Moss appears to have taken on leadership of a new group our correspondents are calling Trading. At a guess, this would seem to encompass the former Enterprise delivery systems and Sales & Trading transactional and data systems for, erm, traders.

Andrew’s Blog – Joyeux Noel FISD Style

The FISD’s European Holiday Party last night was – as it always is – a fun affair, and a great way of doing the rounds of the market and reference data set before the Christmas Break. Less jolly was the General Meeting’ flagship regulation panel, which saw panellist after panellist express frustration, confusion and downright bewilderment at the ongoing discussions around MiFID 2.

Stop Press: Glocer Out as Thomson Reuters Swoops to Flatten Organisation

Just when you thought it was safe, and Thomson Reuters had seen the worst of the organisational turmoil that has beset it since the departure of Markets CEO Devin Wenig in the summer, the company has announced the new, flatter organisation it will adopt on January 1.
