Continental European clearing house LCH SA has appointed Marcus Robinson as head of CDCSClear and head of DigitalAssetClear.
In his new role, Robinson will lead the firm鈥檚 clearing service CDSClear into the next phase of international expansion, particularly across the US, following the launch of client clearing to US firms in February 2024.
In addition, he will also focus on bringing to market DigitalAssetClear, as well as its subsequent development, following recent regulatory approvals, the firm says.
The appointment follows Frank Soussan鈥檚 decision to leave the group, where he was formerly global head of CDSClear and head of SA EquityClear and CommodityClear.
Robinson will report to Corentine Poilvet-Cl茅di茅re, CEO of LCH SA, and he will join the LCH SA leadership team.
He enters the new position from his previous title as head of strategy for London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) Post Trade. Prior to this, Robinson established and led the clearing service鈥檚 expansion into APAC as head of Asia Pacific for LCH.
Earlier in his career, Robinson was COO and director of business change of SwapClear, where he contributed to the design and roll out of the FCM client clearing model and gained extensive knowledge of the US market.
Before joining LCH, he worked for J.P. Morgan in its investment banking and asset management divisions and the Commonwealth Bank of Australia in the Financial Markets division.
Commenting on the hire, Polivet-Clediere says: 鈥淚 look forward to working with Marcus as we continue to build our multi-asset class offering, and deliver new products and services across CDSClear and DigitalAssetClear, from LCH SA, the EU-based clearing house.
鈥淢arcus brings a great deal of experience to his new role having worked with the Group for 15 years.鈥�
