Mr Liddell, 49, a UK national, resigned from Goldman Sachs, where he was a New York based Managing Director, at the end of 2005.

Chris Tupker, Chairman of LCH.Clearnet Group Limited said: .The Board is delighted to have found someone of Roger.s wide experience as a user of post-trade services to lead the company at this critical juncture in its development. Whilst the company.s day to day operations have continued to perform to a high standard, it has fallen behind in its integration plans following the merger in 2003, and must rethink its IT strategy for the future. .I look forward to working with Roger and the excellent staff at LCH.Clearnet in refocusing the company to deliver value to its shareholders while providing enhanced service to its Exchange and user client base..
