AxiomSL appoints Australian country manager
Regulatory reporting, data and risk management solutions company, AxiomSL has appointed a new country manager for Australia.
The company announced this week it had appointed former Macquarie Bank executive, Andrew Wood to the Sydney-based role.
It said the appointment was in line with the company’s commitment to expanding its Asia Pacific (APAC) footprint and growing client base in Australia.
The AxiomSL announcement said Wood had over 20 years of experience having held senior positions within the transformational change management teams in Macquarie Bank as well as Deutsche Bank.
Commenting on the appointment AxiomSL, APAC chief product officer, Olivier Camoun said that as global regulators tightened reporting standards and requirements, the company had experienced increased interest from financial institutions looking for a platform that was able to tackle cross-jurisdictional reporting requirements across markets in APAC.
“Australia is one example with financial institutions facing an expanding array of international and domestic reporting requirements,” he said. “The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) has recently released a slew of new reporting requirements with some coming into effect mid-2017.”
