4sight Financial Software, a vendor and consultancy offering solutions for securities finance, swaps and collateral management, has hired a former vice president at ABN Amro, Edward Cockram, to be North American Product Consulting Director, an addition to the company’s rapidly expanding North American team, officials say.
Before joining 4sight, Cockram was vice president of securities finance at ABN Amro, where he established and ran the collateral finance trading desk, officials say. He has previously worked in collateral finance at Fortis Bank and has a broad range of experience both as a trader and in system development and implementation. He will be based in New York and will provide client consultation and business analysis services to 4sight’s North American clients.
“Edward has considerable experience in areas such as collateral, liquidity and balance sheet optimization, utilizing securities lending, repo, delta-one and other products,” says Alastair Chisholm, managing director of 4sight, in a prepared statement.
“With a record number of new client wins and project go lives in 2014, 4sight is entering a key growth phase as market demand surges for its products and services,” Cockram says.
4sight’s product range includes solutions for securities lending and repo trading, cross asset class collateral management and collateral optimisation, settlement and market connectivity, officials say. The vendor also provides project management, consultancy services and customer support via its global network of offices.
