Mark Pumfrey, head of EMEA, Liquidnet, says: “We saw our European business grow significantly in 2013 as investors’ appetite for equities and their desire to trade with like-minded counterparties grew. Building our business in Germany is key to our overall European expansion strategy and the appointment of Oliver will help us to attract more institutional investors based there.”
