Teciem appoints new board chairman

Treasury and capital markets software provider Teciem has appointed Didier Bouillard as chairman of its board of directors.

Based in London, Didier brings more than 30 years’ experience in financial technology leadership and governance, having led and scaled several private equity-backed platforms across capital markets infrastructure and enterprise software.

His career includes senior roles at Ubitrade and SunGard, before becoming chief executive of Ullink and later Calypso Technology. 

He also led Adenza following the merger of Calypso Technology and AxiomSL, overseeing its integration and subsequent acquisition by Nasdaq.

Didier said: “Teciem combines deep domain expertise, strong customer relationships, and significant growth potential. 

“I’m thrilled to take on the role of chairman, working closely with the management team and other board members, sharing my experience in supporting disciplined execution, robust governance and sustained growth.”

As independent chair, Didier will work closely with Teciem’s board and management team to support the company’s long-term growth strategy and governance.

Wissam Khoury, chief executive and board director, added: “Welcoming an independent chairman of Didier’s caliber and experience to our board of directors marks an important milestone in Teciem’s evolution as a standalone, private-equity backed provider of treasury and capital markets technology. 

“The appointment reflects our commitment to balanced oversight and governance standards consistent with leading institutional fintech platforms. 

“Didier’s expertise in scaling fintech businesses in partnership with private equity, combined with his independent perspective, will be instrumental as we grow the business and execute our strategic roadmap.”

Gabriele Cipparrone, partner at Apax and board director of Teciem, added: “We are delighted to welcome Didier to the role of chairman of Teciem’s board. 

“His deep sector expertise and experience governing high-performance fintech platforms will further strengthen the board as the company accelerates its next phase of growth. 

“We look forward to partnering closely with Didier, Wissam and the rest of this board to support Teciem’s long-term value-creation strategy.”
