Linedata Services SA announced that it made changes to its international governance structure as part of its new Linedata 2018 strategy. The company named Bill Hughes as head of the asset management division, which will combine portfolio management, trading and middle-office products. Hughes previously ran the firm's Capitalstream business.

Alain Mattei, who was previously in charge of lending and leasing business for Europe, will now take over the responsibilities on a global level. The segment combines origination and servicing for commercial and syndicated loans, equipment finance, consumer loans and car and real estate finance. Mattei will also continue to lead the insurance business.

Thierry Soret will continue as head of fund services, which unifies investment accounting, transfer agency and end-of-day reporting services.
