Invast Global has appointed industry veterans Andrew Pal (pictured) and Cassandra Lister as specialist consultants, further strengthening the firm’s Asian PB and Liquidity offering.

With a distinguished, twenty-year career at UBS under his belt, most notably as the Executive Director & CEO of UBS Futures Singapore, Andrew Pal brings a particular expertise in the changing global regulatory environment and the opportunities afforded within the prime services space as regulatory reforms progress.


Pal says: ‘‘I am looking forward to working with Invast Global at such an exciting time in the evolution of the prime brokerage landscape and especially, the growth of Invast Global into a leading global prime services provider”.


Lister, a respected Investment Banking executive in Asia, joins Invast via her independent consulting firm, Euforia Consulting. Based in Hong Kong for the past decade, Lister has enjoyed a highly successful career encompassing senior executive and regional roles at JP Morgan, Societe Generale and Deutsche Bank. Lister excels in providing a holistic approach to client relationships and will assist Invast in expanding their presence at the higher end of the prime services segment across Asia.


Gavin White, CEO of Invast Global has warmly welcomed the new members of the Invast team, seeing the appointments as yet another sign of the firm’s ascension within the industry. “The quality of these two appointees is testament to the excellence of our offering,” he says. “Andrew and Cassandra are joining a firm which is very well-positioned to benefit from the way the industry is evolving. Our team, infrastructure and product offering are all of the highest calibre and our firm is an exciting place to be.”
