Liquidnet Expands Equities Sales Team

Liquidnet, the global institutional trading network, today announced the hire and appointment of Timothy Gee as Head of the Western Sales Team. Timothy brings over 30 years of industry experience and will be responsible for the Western Sales Region in the US, which includes the Midwest and the West Coast.

“With approximately one quarter of our US equity trading originating from the Western Sales region, 2018 proved to be the perfect time to grow out the team and open a new office in San Francisco,” Brennan Warble, Liquidnet’s Head of Americas. “We’re happy to be bringing on Tim, who is well-versed in our business and well-regarded in our industry, to help us grow this region further.”

Prior to joining Liquidnet, Gee was Managing Director and Head of Distribution at Instinet where he focused on developing and implementing various client coverage and execution solutions. Before Instinet, he served as the Head of Equity Execution for the Americas and Global Head of Portfolio Trading at Societe Generale, and held prior positions at UBS and Morgan Stanley.

Gee will be based in San Francisco and oversee a team based in Chicago, Los Angeles and San Francisco. He reports directly to Brennan Warble.
