BNP Paribas (BNPP) has appointed John Jenkin as head of prime services technology.
Jenkin joins the bank from JP Morgan where he worked as head of prime finance technology and brings with him over twenty years’ experience within global business critical technology. He is based in London and reports to Adalbert de Broglie, CIO Global Markets at BNP Paribas.
This newly created role will align prime services technology further with the prime service business unit, led by Ashley Wilson (head of prime services, global equities). This demonstrates the bank’s commitment to the growth of prime services within the wider equities franchise, with John’s role acting to support product expansion and scale up with an immediate focus on the growth of the technology team.
