TraditionDATA, the data and information services division of Compagnie Financière Tradition (Tradition), has added two senior market specialists to its sales teams as part of its continued global growth plans. 

Steve Murphy, based in Madrid, and Bruce Messing, based in New York, have joined TraditionDATA as Senior Business Development Managers.

Steve joins from Fenics where he was Regional Sales Manager for the data team in Asia, based in Singapore. He has extensive market and technical system experience, having also worked for SmartStream and Thomson Reuters, and will join the firm’s recently formed Madrid Data Team.

Bruce joins TraditionDATA’s New York office from TP ICAP, where he most recently held the position of Regional Sales Manager. Formerly of Broadridge, Thomson Reuters, Danske Bank and Bloomberg, Bruce brings vast experience to the TraditionDATA team which is currently challenging the norms in the market data space.

These two appointments demonstrate an ongoing dedication to investing in the growth of TraditionDATA, enabling it to expand its offering to clients. With Murphy and Messing on board, the firm will continue to develop innovative, high quality and flexible data products and deliver them to clients across the globe. 

James Watson, Global Head of Sales at TraditionDATA, commented: “We are very pleased to welcome Steve and Bruce to the TraditionDATA team. Both bring a wealth of experience and expertise, and their appointments come at an exciting time for our business, as we continue to increase and improve our product base and provide our clients access to the data they need when they most need it.”
