Euroclear Sweden’s board of directors has appointed Hanna Vainio as CEO, in addition to her current position as the CEO of Euroclear Finland.
Vainio succeeds Roger Storm, who steps down after more than four years as the CEO of Euroclear Sweden.
In her dual role, Vainio will work on increasing collaboration between the Swedish and Finnish central securities depositories (CSDs) as the financial market infrastructures for the Nordic markets.
She joined Euroclear in 2006 and has been the CEO of Euroclear Finland since 2015.
Under her leadership, the Finnish CSD has gone through a complete business and IT transformation, with the successful migration of Euroclear Finland to the European Central Bank's TARGET2-Â鶹´«Ã½ (T2S) settlement system in 2023.
In addition, Vainio is a member of the Euroclear Group Leadership Council.
Bernard Frenay, Euroclear’s CEO for European markets, comments: "I am convinced that her track-record within the group and her deep understanding of both the Swedish and Finnish markets will contribute to bringing both CSDs closer together, increase client centricity, and accelerate the transformation of Euroclear Sweden into an open, modern and digital market infrastructure for both domestic and international market participants.
“I would like to thank Roger Storm for his leadership, his contribution to the company over the past four years, and having strengthened Euroclear’s position in Sweden."
