Options, a provider of managed trading infrastructure to the global Capital Markets, has appointed Jim Bomer as SVP, Director Market Data Division.

Bomer joined Options late last year following the ACTIV Financial acquisition, where he served for 19 years as the firm's Chief Operating Officer. Prior to his role with ACTIV, he held a variety of Capital Markets roles in London, Frankfurt, and Chicago and has more than 25 years of experience in the real-time trading and market data sector.

In his new role, Bomer has responsibility for the product strategy, development and operations of Options' market data division, which includes ACTIV Financial following its acquisition by Options in October 2021.

His appointment also marks the continued growth of Options' Chicago presence, following the recent announcement of Ted Sturiale as VP of Sales in Chicago.
