NEW YORK - Jan. 12, 2016 - PRLog -- As a hands-on executive specializing in major transformation, Moyce has successfully led many high-profile companies through periods of significant change.  These companies include LIFFE (London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange), Markit, Lloyds of London, Orix Investment & Development Capital, and Credit Market Analysis (CMA).   As Chief Operating Officer at CMA, Moyce transformed the products, services, technology, operations and structure and led the integration into a new parent company (McGraw Hill Financial).

DataArt Managing Director Alexei Miller said:

“We are delighted that Cliff Moyce has now taken on the role of leading our financial practice globally. His experiences in everything from building and launching major new mortgage and insurance companies, to leading the automation of trading at Europe’s largest derivatives exchange, to building the first automated index arbitrage system for equities in London, to running a private equity company will be of huge benefit to our clients.  We believe that Cliff is the right kind of leader to take our successful finance practice to the new heights. His experience will be invaluable to us.”

Moyce said:

“The two key concerns for me in considering whether to take this position were, one - is there passion and ambition to grow further? And two: is there the expertise available to fulfill this ambition? With DataArt, both boxes were ticked and I am delighted to have been given the opportunity to lead this exciting, top tier team. DataArt has been a reliable technology partner for many investment and asset management firms, and I am certain that other institutions - insurance providers, pension funds, savings & loans, and mortgage companies - can greatly benefit from the services of DataArt.”
