Investment data and technology provider Finbourne Technology said it has bolstered its presence in Asia with the appointment of Peter Edwards as head of sales for the region.

A former BNY Mellon Eagle sales specialist in Asia, Edwards has been tasked with leading the company’s expansion in the region from Singapore. He’ll be responsible for the acquisition of clients “across the entire product spectrum and segments”.

Finbourne, which also has offices in London, Australia and Ireland, has raised £100 million in funding and is committing that new capital to its expansion plans.

“Peter’s experience makes him a perfect fit for our company at this pivotal juncture,” said chief executive Thomas McHugh. “His role will be integral in reinforcing Finbourne’s position in this dynamic region.”
