MEX Exchange Names David Ogg Vice Chairman, Brian Andreyko as CEO | LeapRate
MEX Exchange, the institutional electronic trading platform operated by MultiBank Group, has announced two senior leadership appointments as the company looks to build out its institutional trading capabilities. David Ogg has been promoted to Vice Chairman, while Brian Andreyko has been named Chief Executive Officer.
Ogg brings more than four decades of experience in foreign exchange trading and trading technology to the role. Widely known within the institutional FX industry as the “Father of the ECN,” he founded HotspotFX in 1999, the first institutional FX electronic communications network, and later established LavaFX and Ogg Trading.
His career also includes senior positions at Credit Suisse, Lehman Brothers, HSBC and Dresdner Kleinwort Benson, along with work alongside Bloomberg and Citibank on institutional FX solutions. He has been inducted into the Profit & Loss Hall of Fame.
Andreyko joins with more than 30 years of experience across financial technology and institutional markets, having built and scaled several electronic trading businesses. He previously held the roles of Chief Operating Officer and Chief of Staff at Currenex, and Executive Vice President and Head of EBS at ICAP. He also served as CEO of MakoFX/Liquidity Pool and Chief Business Officer at TradAir, both companies that were later acquired.
In statements accompanying the announcement, both executives pointed to plans to expand MEX Exchange’s institutional offering, with Andreyko noting a focus on connecting emerging market and global participants through a scalable trading platform. The appointments come as MultiBank Group continues to invest in the leadership and infrastructure of its exchange business.
