Sky Road Opens New York Office, Adds Itri as Principal

The vendor has expanded headcount by 32 percent as a result of the New York opening, with the intention of establishing a strong outpost from which to deliver its Motion services platform. Itri, a buy-side IT veteran of 15 years, joins Sky Road after serving as CIO for Arbalet Capital Management and now-defunct Arrowhawk Capital Group, and has also held previous roles for HSBC's alternative fund services, AIG, and Pequot Capital Management.

“Establishing a regional presence on the East Coast positions Sky Road to further deliver efficient and world-class service to our growing client base. Richard will serve as an excellent leader given his stellar reputation in the industry and his deep domain expertise in hedge fund technology will be a valuable asset to the firm," says John Borse, Sky Road's founder and president.
