The International Securities Lending Association (ISLA) has hired Farrah Mahmood from JPMorgan Chase as a regulatory and data analyst.
Mahmood will start her role on 2 September and report to Adrian Dale, director of regulation and market practice and another ISLA newcomer.
She joins from JPMorgan Chase where she has been a traders assistant manager for securities lending since January 2018.
During her time at JPMorgan Chase, which began in 2015, Mahmood also occupied client service and analyst roles within asset servicing, broker dealer operations and swap middle office.
Dale commented: “We are delighted to welcome Farrah Mahmood at such an important and busy developmental period for our industry. Her skills and experience will bring some new and interesting perspectives to much of the ongoing work we are doing, as well as future projects.”
In a statement on the hire, ISLA said it continues to focus on a number of key advocacy and regulatory streams across Europe with its members, regulators, policymakers and other industry stakeholders.
The association added that the latest hire will further bolster these efforts and provide the necessary support to do more.
ISLA’s talent pool has swelled in the past year with Dale joining in November 2018 just after Consolo’s Richard Colvill moved over in September to work exclusively on the association’s work related to the incoming Securities Financing Transactions Regulation (SFTR).
Dale has worked within the securities lending industry for more than 25 years in a variety of roles across operations, trading, technology and product development. He has held senior positions at BNY Mellon, Barclays, BNP Paribas and more recently, IHS Markit where he was product manager for SFTR and MSF.
Elsewhere, Colvill has significant experience in delivering complex data projects within securities finance more than 20-year career.
