Tullett Prebon announces senior management appointments

Verrier replaces Joel Plasco, who was appointed chief executive officer of Collins Stewart in May 2006, while Duckworth replaces Verrier as chief executive officer, EMEA.

Verrier joined the company from Prebon Marshall Yamane after the £132 million acquisition by Collins Stewart Tullett in October 2004. He was previously CEO of Prebon’s London office. Duckworth joined from Tullett Liberty following its acquisition by Collins Stewart Tullett in 2003, and was named chief operating officer, EMEA, in 2004.

Lou Scotto, CEO of Tullett Prebon, said: “Following the completion of Tullett Prebon's reorganisation at the beginning of the year, our focus is now on growing the integrated business. Tony's first-hand experience of the broking industry and management of EMEA will be an invaluable addition to our central management team. Steph's promotion will ensure a natural transition between management and allow the momentum we have already created across the EMEA region to continue.”
