Fintech giant Confluence, which provides products to the global asset manager and recently bought UK-based Statpro, has made Sunil Rajan its Global Head of Sales.

In the role, he’s responsible for creating the overall sales strategy and overseeing the entire sales force at the firm. He will report directly to Todd Moyer, president and chief operating officer of the company.

Following the aforementioned acquisition of StatPro in October last year, Confluence has combined its front, middle and back-office offerings to bolster its position as a global leader in data-driven managed investment solutions. Statpro’s deal with UBS for its Delta product created a powerful company and the tie-up with Confluence was seen as a game changer by many commentators.

Confluence aims to deliver innovative solutions that meet the performance, reporting, analytics, risk and data needs of asset managers and service providers. As Global Head of Sales, Mr Rajan will work with Confluence’s executive team to identify and implement sales strategies and establish domestic and international sales objectives, including volumes, cost of sales and product profitability.

Mr Rajan comes to Confluence with more than 20 years of experience expanding business’s footprints. Most recently, he served as Managing Director, EMEA & APAC at Axioma. Earlier, he was Head of Business Development (EMEA) for Standard and Poor’s Risk Solutions, and he has held senior leadership roles at Thomson Reuters, Misys and other global software, services and financial data companies.

Mr Moyer said: “We’re excited to welcome Sunil to Confluence and I’m confident that he will be a great addition to the team.

“As Confluence works to deepen our partnerships with existing clients and expand our offering of solutions into new markets, Sunil’s deep expertise in international sales and business development make him the perfect fit for a growing, global company like ours.”
