ayondo Announces CFO Appointment - Rick Fulton Joins ayondo From Daiwa Securities

Date 19/05/2016

ayondo, the FinTech and Social Trading Pioneer, is pleased to announce the strategic key appointment of Mr Rick Fulton as Chief Financial Officer. In this important phase, prior to the envisaged listing in Singapore, the ayondo group builds on Mr Fulton’s significant experience as a CFO in the financial industry.

"I am very pleased that Rick is joining the Executive Committee of ayondo. With his extensive experience as a financial services industry CFO, especially in the Asian region, Rick will play a crucial role in the planned listing of ayondo in Singapore", said Robert Lempka, CEO of ayondo Holding AG.

Mr Fulton is joining from Daiwa Securities, where he was Managing Director, Regional CFO Asia and Oceania. He held senior positions at Royal Bank of Scotland and Deutsche Bank in London and was previously the CFO of ABN AMRO Bank in Zurich and Tokyo.

“I share ayondo’s belief in revolutionary and efficient trading and investment solutions and I am eager to work with the co-founders Robert Lempka and Thomas Winkler to take the ayondo group to the next level and public listing”, said Rick Fulton. His decision to join ayondo is based on the high profile of ayondo’s Senior Management, the global reach of the company, the vision and the success story of the Swiss based FinTech Group.

One month ago, financial technology group ayondo announced the engagement in advanced negotiations with a SGX-listed company on a Reverse Takeover (RTO) transaction. This could result in ayondo being the first FinTech company to be listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX).
