ASX announces that after 23 years of service, its Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Group Executive Business Development, Peter Hiom, has resigned and will leave the organisation on 1 July 2021.

Peter is leaving to further his interest in fintech and blockchain technology. As part of this, he is joining Motive Partners, a global investment firm focused on financial services technology companies, as an Industry Partner.

ASX Managing Director and CEO, Dominic Stevens, said: “Peter has made a significant contribution to Australia’s financial markets over many years, first at SFE and then ASX, including the past 11 years as Deputy CEO.

“Peter is a strong advocate for embracing new technology to deliver innovation and efficiency across our industry. This is best exemplified by his leadership of the investigation and adoption of distributed ledger technology to underpin the replacement of CHESS.

“We thank and congratulate Peter on his service and wish him the very best,” Mr Stevens added.
