The opening of our Hong Kong office is a key element of our growth strategy and is especially well-timed to provide specialized support to the specific requirements of both current and future clients in the region. Our focus on growth in APAC is driven by the market’s increasing need to understand and analyze the key drivers in margin movement with the related liquidity and cost impact, and to implement fully collateral resilient models. I am genuinely excited to have someone of David’s caliber and experience join the team and lead our APAC expansion, and I have no doubt that he will contribute to our continued growth and success.
