BM&FBovespa (UK) Ltd, is a wholly owned subsidiary of BM&F Bovespa S.A (BVMF) the Brazilian Securities, Commodities, and Futures Exchange. I was responsible for the set up and expansion of the new BVMF European office located in London, including all product and sales related activities in EMEA. I was also responsible for establishing regulatory relationships, education and training programmes, speaking opportunities, and developing marketing, and business development related activities targeted at potential customers in the region.

Reporting directly to the global head of Business Development I was responsible for re-establishing CBOT in London and building our offshore client participation globally excl. USA. I was responsible for all business development, sales, marketing, regulatory, education, membership, incentive scheme and industry body related activities in both EMEA and Asia and was a regular speaker at conferences in EMEA and Asia. I also participated in the establishment of 'Joint Asian Derivatives Exchange' between SGX and CBOT (JADE) which was focused on building a new commodities exchange in Asia. Within 2 years of taking on the role, volume on CBOT originating from EMEA increased from less than 2% ADV to over 8% ADV. Within four years that number was at 20% at a time when overall exchange volume was also increasing significantly. I established strong relationships with all major market participants, regulators, industry bodies, central banks and government groups in London and broader central Europe and was responsible for CBOTs expansion into Eastern European and Middle Eastern markets.
