Todd Slater has departed FIS after six years serving as head of securities finance and collateral sales and pre-sales for Asia Pacific (APAC), Japan and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and is open to new opportunities.

Slater pioneered the securities finance business in the region first with Loanet and then SunGard, now part of FIS.

SunGard acquired FINACE, including its Apex, Astec Analytics, Global One and Loanet platforms, in 2011 before being absorbed into FIS in 2015.

Between 2002 and 2015, Slater led SunGard’s securities finance business in APAC and Japan. Under the FIS banner, he moved on to the regional team covering the complete sales cycle from prospecting, pre-sales, sales, contract negotiations, and project planning.

He held overall responsibility for team management, revenue growth, strategy, client retention, and strategic planning in Asia.

Speaking to SFT on his career highlights, Slater says he sold the first commercially available securities lending system to the Singapore Exchange in 2018.

Between 2001 and 2020 he grew APAC business to include 45 per cent of tier one international banks and brokers and 96 per cent of tier two domestic banks and brokers.

By 2020, FIS maintained 70 per cent market share of the securities finance technology for banks and brokers in APAC.

Moreover, it captured all of the securities finance markets in Malaysia and UAE by acting on regulatory changes.

Slater says he is now open to offers for new roles within the securities finance and collateral communities.
