Calastone, the largest global funds network, today announces the appointment of Dan Kramer as Vice Chairman, to be based in the firm’s New York office.

Kramer joins Calastone from BNY Mellon, where he held the position of EVP and Chief Client Experience Officer, managing all stages of customer experience across client service, insight and strategy. During this time, he was also a member of the CIBC Mellon Board. Prior to this, he spent eight years at JP Morgan Chase as Head of Fund Services.

Kramer will spearhead the firm’s strategy for expansion across the Americas, leveraging his more than thirty years of experience and expertise in the asset management and asset servicing industries.

Earlier this year, Calastone introduced its blockchain-enabled Distributed Market Infrastructure, creating the world’s largest financial community connected using distributed ledger technology.

As a market leader we pride ourselves on bringing together the very best talent and experience in the industry and Dan’s appointment is hugely additive, bringing significant expertise of the American funds sector.”

“The Americas represent a significant growth opportunity for Calastone and Dan will be instrumental in directing our strategy for the region. Bringing our unique technology proposition to the Americas will mark a key inflection point for the ongoing success of our business worldwide.”

Commenting on his appointment, Kramer adds:

“I’m very excited to be joining Calastone at such a pivotal stage in its development. Calastone’s industry leading, innovative technology and first-class customer experience significantly reduces costs and generates better value for investors. This has been further enhanced by its blockchain-enabled Distributed Market Infrastructure (DMI).”
