Senior Management Changes at BGC Partners

Institutional interbank broker BGC Partners has hired Paul Reidy as head of brokerage technology in New York, according to market sources.

Reidy moved to the firm from his COO role at CboeFX Global Markets, where he managed teams responsible for technology and operations on the CboeFX platform. Cboe confirmed Reidy’s departure.

Earlier in his career, Reidy was Head of FX Technology at BATS and worked as a Managing Director at Knight Capital Group, where he managed market structure and liquidity for HotspotFX.

BATS acquired HotspotFX from Knight Capital Group in May 2015 for $365 million.

Reidy led the extraction of the platform, and the team of 40 from KCG to BATS.

His career began in 2001 in Fixed Income Electronic Trading at Bloomberg.

In 2006 he joined Citi, where he held various positions, including Global Head of FX Technology.

Hirschorn served as CTO of Fixed Income at Morgan Stanley before moving to Bank of America.
