Mirae Asset Global Investments has appointed Ryan O'Connor, previously with Goldman Sachs, as CEO of its ETF subsidiary, Global X, starting April 8. This move follows Global X's strategic overhaul after its 2018 acquisition by Mirae Asset. O'Connor, with 17 years of experience in the US ETF industry, including roles at Goldman Sachs and State Street Global Advisors, is tasked with boosting brand value and pursuing innovative growth strategies. His extensive background in product development and ETF operations positions him to lead Global X's expansion and reinforce its industry standing. Global X, with assets under management worth $42 billion as of January's end, is seen by Mirae Asset as a key innovator and growth component.
