Subscribe to our newsletter

ClearToken, the digital financial market infrastructure provider, has appointed Fernando Cerezetti as Chief Risk Officer (CRO) of its subsidiary ClearToken CCP Limited. The subsidiary is currently in the process of applying to the Bank of England to become an authorised Central Counterparty (CCP). Cerezetti will lead the development and oversight of the CCP’s risk management framework, ensuring it adheres to the rigorous standards of UK EMIR and the Bank of England’s supervisory requirements.

Cerezetti brings over 20 years of specialist experience to the role, having most recently served as Head of Model Risk Management, Data and Governance at ICE Clear Europe. His career includes three years as a Risk Advisor at the Bank of England and a period as a Quant Associate Director for B3. Additionally, he chaired the Risk Committee of the European Association of CCP Clearing Houses for seven years and holds a PhD in Statistics.

This leadership appointment coincides with ClearToken’s plans to launch three Daml-based platforms – CT Settle, CT Pay, and CT Register – on the Canton Network. These platforms are designed to facilitate regulated tokenisation and atomic settlement across fiat, stablecoins, and cryptoassets. The hire of Cerezetti is a strategic step in establishing the institutional-grade risk infrastructure necessary to support these digital asset services within a regulated environment.
