FIIG looks for new CEO


Fixed income broker FIIG Securities has announced the appointment of founding director Jim Stening as acting managing director effective immediately, pending the appointment of a new chief executive.
The company said the appointment followed the decision by current managing director and CEO, Mark Paton to step down from the role.
It said Paton and the board were exploring a potential role at Gieldan Capital, the alternate debt joint venture between FIIG and MH Carnegie.
Stening founded FIIG in 1998 and was the managing director of the company for approximately 14 years before being replaced by Paton and moving to a non-executive director role.
The company's announcement said the board had engaged an executive search firm to commence the process of appointing a new CEO.
