Andrew Pal and Cassandra Lister, Invast Global
Invast Global has announced the appointment of industry veterans Andrew Pal and Cassandra Lister as specialist consultants, further strengthening the firm’s Asian prime brokerage and Liquidity offering. With a twenty-year career at UBS under his belt, Mr. Pal brings a particular expertise in the changing global regulatory environment and the opportunities afforded within the prime services space as regulatory reforms progress.
James Bindler, Citi
One of the longest tenured veterans in the foreign exchange (FX) industry, James Bindler, will be retiring after nearly three decades in a variety of senior FX roles to pursue academic interests. Mr. Bindler has been a mainstay in the FX industry for over thirty four years, most recently taking a senior position at Citi as its Global FX Chief in mid-2014, succeeding Jeff Feig. Overall, he spent over two decades at Citi in multiple senior roles.
