TP Icap Names New Global Broking Head

TP Icap has appointed former Société Générale head of markets, Daniel Fields, as CEO of its Global Broking division, reporting directly to group CEO, Nicolas Breteau.

Fields spent over 22 years at SocGen before leaving in 2016 from his role at global head of markets, in the interim he has worked an investment and advisory firms Green Fields Management and Altero Capital Partners.

As CEO of Global Broking, the firm says Fields will be responsible for driving further growth in the business and delivering strategic execution, including the continued rollout of TP Icap’s electronic platform, Fusion.

The move means that Andrew Polydor, who has led both Global Broking and Energy & Commodities (E&C) throughout the pandemic, will return to focusing on the E&C business as CEO. Supporting Polydor will be George Dranganoudis, who transfers from APAC to become deputy CEO of E&C and EMEA CEO of E&C.

“The appointment of Dan as CEO of our Global Broking business is another important strategic hire for TP Icap as we continue to build out the strength of our leadership team,” says Breteau. “His extensive experience in capital markets and strong client relationships position him as the perfect candidate to drive the transformation of Global Broking.

“I’d like to thank Andrew for steering the business effectively through the turbulent years of the pandemic and various macro-economic shocks,” he continues. “He is now able to return to focusing on our E&C business. This division is continuing to embed technology and grow in key areas, such as our renewables and digital assets businesses.”
