Speaking on the expansion into Amsterdam, Daniel Sandmeier, CEO of Instimatch Global, said: “We’re delighted to have opened in Amsterdam and to have such an experienced institutional sales leader as Roel to lead our efforts in the Benelux. Instimatch Global’s plan was always to internationalise quickly, as making the nationally-siloed unsecured money market more international is at the heart of what we offer.
