OTC Markets Group has hired former NYSE executive Robert Power as its new corporate client relationship director, a newly-created position.
Based in New York, Power is charged with growing the firm’s OTCQX and OTCQB issuing companies listings and supporting the enhancement of OTC Markets service and technology offerings to better meet issuers’ growth and business objectives.
Power, a 33 year professional, comes from the New York Stock Exchange, an Intercontinental Exchange company, where he served as vice president and co-head of sales for the global corporate client group, responsible for building relationships with NYSE-listed U.S. companies and listing publicly-traded companies. Before that, he served as Director of New Listings for the Archipelago Exchange (ArcaEx), and was later appointed a Vice President of NYSE Arca after ArcaEx merged with the NYSE in 2006.
Prior to NYSE, he spent nine years at NasdaqOMX – most recently as a senior vice president of its Market Intelligence Desk, which provided sophisticated, customized real-time analysis of trading, marketing activity and performance data to more than 3,000 listed companies. Earlier in his career, Power served as the managing director of marketing at the American Stock Exchange and as a senior analyst in that company’s Trading Analysis Division.
He reports to Jason Paltrowitz, managing director and global head of business development.
