BMLL, the provider of harmonised historical Level 3, 2, and 1 market data and analytics, has appointed Brad Hunt as Chairman of the Board. Hunt succeeds Lee Hodgkinson, who will remain on the board as an independent Non-Executive Director (NED). Hunt brings 30 years of experience in financial data businesses, having most recently served as CEO of Rimes Technologies following senior roles at Bank of New York Mellon, IHS Markit, and Goldman Sachs International.

The appointment comes alongside the addition of US-based independent NED Spiros Giannaros, currently CEO of Gresham Technologies and formerly CEO of Charles River Development. They join an existing board comprising BMLL executives Paul Humphrey (CEO) and Nigel Medhurst (CFO/COO), alongside representatives from Nordic Capital and Optiver.

These leadership changes follow Nordic Capital’s acquisition of BMLL in October 2025. The revamped board is structured to support BMLL’s global expansion and bolster its product delivery for financial market participants.
