TraditionData, a provider of OTC financial market insights, announced today (Thursday) the appointment of Michael Suppa to its Account Management team in New York, along with several other key personnel changes as part of its global expansion strategy.

TraditionData Hires Former LSEG Executive to Strengthen US Market Presence

Suppa joins TraditionData with extensive experience in the market data industry, having most recently served as Global Director of Sales Strategy and Execution at London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG). During his tenure at LSEG, he focused on driving sales productivity and efficiency for real-time data solutions, working with cross-functional teams to develop sales enablement strategies.

His career spans multiple major financial data providers, including previous roles at Refinitiv, Thomson Reuters, and Markit, where he specialized in fixed income markets and data services. At Markit, Suppa was responsible for growth strategy for the company's fixed income pricing business, and at Thomson Reuters, he led fixed income data services.

“Mike brings a wealth of experience in the market data industry, with a strong background in establishing and managing client relationships at all levels,” TraditionData commented in the press release. “His knowledge base in a range of OTC and Fixed Income markets, combined with his understanding of our expanding US client footprint, makes him a valuable addition to the team.”

These are not the only recent personnel changes at TraditionData. In October 2024, the company tapped six key hires, including former Parameta Deputy CEO Chris Dearie, who was appointed as the new Chief Operating Officer.

In November 2024, TraditionData veteran Ian Sams was promoted to the role of Global Head of Product.

Promotion And Additional Hires

The company also announced the promotion of Shane Dillon to Global Head of Account Management. Based in London, Dillon will lead and expand the global account management team to deepen client engagement.

His career includes positions at Copper.co as Business Development Director, BitGo as Director of Institutional Sales, and extensive experience in electronic trading at major institutions including BNP Paribas, Morgan Stanley, and Societe Generale, where he spent 14 years in various roles.

“As we continue to scale our presence globally, our commitment to delivering exceptional client experiences remains at the heart of our service offering,” Dillon stated. “Account Management plays a crucial role in ensuring our clients receive the support they need, when they need it, wherever they are in the world.”

Moreover, TraditionData has hired two Business Development Associates: Sam Tuckwell in London and Jason Chou in Hong Kong, who will support lead generation and business development activities.

“As we expand across regions, we're focused on strengthening the depth and quality of support we provide to our many customers and partners,” Richard Brunt, Chief Revenue Officer at TraditionData, commented.

TraditionData, backed by interdealer broker Tradition, provides pricing data across FX & Money Markets, Interest Rate Derivatives, Credit & Fixed Income, and Energy & Commodities markets from its network of over 40 offices across 30 countries.
