Robson Departs Reuters for NYSE Technologies CEO Role

Jon Robson at Thomson Reuters
Jon Robson has joined NYSE Technologies as its new CEO.

Robson had been with Thomson Reuters since 2003, following his move from Moneyline Telerate, where he also served as CEO.

During his time at Thomson Reuters, Robson led the company's enterprise division as president, delivering real-time market data, market data platforms, pricing and reference data services, and capital markets solutions. He took on a new business development office within the firm in January this year.

Previously, Robson has also held senior positions at Dow Jones and BIS Banking Systems. He replaces Stanley Young, the long-serving CEO who departed abruptly for Bloomberg earlier this year.

Robson joins NYSE Technologies at a time when the exchange group is reorganizing and prioritizing its operations in the wake of its failed merger with Deutsche Börse. The proposed combination was blocked by the European Commission on antitrust grounds, with the body arguing that the super-bourse would have a virtual monopoly over derivatives trading in Europe. NYSE Technologies, along with other IT divisions in major exchanges, is seen by the group as a potential leader for growth and revenue generation at a time when the traditional exchange model is becoming increasingly fragmented in both the US and Europe.
