Itiviti Adds Frederic Villain as Head of Agency Trading Sales Asia

Itiviti, a trading technology and service provider, has unveiled its latest executive appointment. The move will see an emphasis on Itiviti’s Asian operations, culminating in the addition of Frederic Villain as Head of Agency Trading Sales Asia.

His mandate as the Head of Agency Trading Sales Asia will be to help steer and ultimately grow Itiviti’s regional market share while ensuring customer satisfaction.

The move is tendered with immediate effect, with Mr. Villain being based out of Itiviti’s Singapore office, per a company report. In this capacity, he will be responsible for managing regional client relations, defining and executing Itiviti’s regional sales and account management strategies.

According to Ofir Gefen, President APAC, Itiviti, in a statement on the appointment: “We’re thrilled to have Fred back on our team. His experience, solid systems knowledge and strong business acumen with a keen sense for what really matters to customers will be great assets as we are raising our targets for Asia, and specifically for our initiative to support former Bloomberg SSEOMS clients when migrating their platforms.”

The appointment of Mr. Villain also reflects Itiviti’s desire to focus on Bloomberg's Order Management System SSEOMS, namely its migration capacity. Prior to joining Itiviti, he worked at Bloomberg, overseeing its SSEOMS for the Asia-Pacific region.

During his tenure, he also worked in sales, implementation and account management, all with an emphasis on the APAC region, which should be an asset in his new role at Itiviti.
