A Review of Peer Joost’s Career

Joost’s experience has always been in the family business since
he began just over ten years ago in October 2011. His intial post was Product
Services and Sales, which he fulfilled over two and a half years. He then
received a promotion in the Spring of 2014 to Product Manager. After another
three and a half years, he worked his way up to Head of Marketing and Sales. He
put about the same time into that role before he received the promotion to COO & Managing Director in January 2021.
Over the last year, he reported directly to the CEO and owners and was
responsible for the day-to-day administration and operation at Digitec.

A New Phase of Growth

Commenting on the promotion, Peer Joost, the CEO of DIGITEC,
said: “I would like to formally recognise my father’s contribution to
DIGITEC’s growth over the last 40 years. As CEO, he led a team which
successfully navigated the Scandinavian banking crisis, the dot-com bubble and
global financial crises, reinventing our products and services to satisfy the
changing needs of the market and firmly establishing DIGITEC as a pioneering
Software and Data Service company and global market leader for FX Pricing
solutions. I am delighted to take over as CEO as we begin a new phase of
growth, which extends our range of services and supported assets and increases
access to a wider group of clients around the world.”

The family business of DIGITEC is one of the World’s leading
software providers of eFX pricing solutions. Over forty banks already trust in its
D3 technology for their Forward, Swaps, NDF and Money Market pricing,
including more than 50% of the Euromoney Top 50 FX trading firms.

At the end of June 2021, DIGITEC
hired Stephan von Massenbach as its CRO and opened a new London office. The
company highlighted that the new office in London was established due to the increasing
number of inquiries from banks and trading desks based in London.
