At IHS Markit, Carvajal serves as a senior product specialist, providing global product and industry expertise to the firm’s largest sell- and buy-side customers.
A spokesperson for IHS Markit said that Carvajal’s knowledge of data, analytics and best practices will help drive its securities finance product roadmap and ensure customer satisfaction.
