The head of data at the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG.L) has stepped down after a year in the job; with the closely-watched integration of Refinitiv still underway.
Andrea Remyn Stone, a former Bloomberg executive who replaced Refinitiv CEO David Craig in July last year; is stepping down for personal reasons, with the search for her successor already begun, LSEG said in a statement. She will remain an adviser until she leaves in the autumn.
In a sign of how LSEG wants to reassure investors about its biggest business unit; it said Chief Executive David Schwimmer will also head data until a replacement for Remyn Stone is found.
LSEG continues to perform in line with expectations and consistent with all of our financial guidance,” the exchange said.
At 1253 GMT, LSEG shares were down 0.7%, though outperforming a 1.9% fall in the FTSE (.FTSE) blue chip index.
