Margin Reform has appointed Stuart Kidd as its new senior consultant to bolster its clearing, margin and collateral practice.
Clearing, margin and collateral come under one of Margin Reform’s six service areas which Chetan Joshi, founder and COO, and Shaun Murray, managing partner, lead.
Kidd, who is based in London and reports to Murray, and joins from Commerzbank, where he specialised in over-the-counter (OTC) clearing in client solutions for three years.
Prior to that, Kidd served as a senior manager at Standard Chartered Bank for just shy of a year.
Before that, he held a number of roles at J.P. Morgan for nearly three years, including most recently working as a project manager focusing on uncleared swap margin rules and as an OTC operations manager.
Murray comments: “With collateral now impacting the buy side more than it ever has, being able to support our clients across all facets of their business, to make them more efficient both economically and operationally is vital.
“Stuart joins us to spearhead work with clients who maybe don’t understand how to enhance their capabilities, or to compress risk and optimise their portfolios, collateral drag is an economic challenge that needs to be solved.”
