He joins GTN from Saxo Bank, where he served as global head of digital engagement and client services.

While at Merrill Lynch, his most recent role was head of equity program and electronic sales trading.
“We are thrilled to have Eric join our team as CEO of GTN Americas,” said Manjula Jayasinghe, group CEO of GTN.
“His wealth of experience and industry knowledge will be invaluable as we expand GTN business in the US and the Americas and strive to become the preferred fintech driven global investment and trading services provider.”
Krueger’s appointment becomes the latest in GTN’s ongoing expansion efforts to build a comprehensive electronic trading and investment platform outside of its home market in Dubai.
GTN serves brokers, banks, asset managers, and fintech clients, providing them with trading and investment solutions that make investment and trading accessible to all.
