Rimes appoints Vijay Mayadas as Chairman and CEO

New CEO Vijay Mayadas will accelerate Rimes' transformation into the "Intelligence Fabric" for the investment industry. Rimes, a leading provider of enterprise data management solutions and investment platforms for the global investment community, is pleased to announce the appointment of Vijay Mayadas as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mayadas, a seasoned FinTech executive with a proven track record of scaling global businesses and driving innovation in financial markets, succeeds Brad Hunt, who will assume the role of Vice Chairman of Rimes' Board of Directors. After more than 25 years of pioneering work at the intersection of technology, data, and financial services, Mayadas joins Rimes following 12 years at Broadridge Financial Solutions, where he most recently served as Chairman of the Board, Capital Markets. In this role, he grew the company's revenue from $600 million to over $1 billion and, during his tenure, helped increase the company's market capitalization from under $3 billion to nearly $30 billion. Mayadas has also spearheaded the launch of industry-first innovations, including AI-powered trading platforms and distributed ledger solutions that now process trillions of dollars in transactions each month. Donald Smith, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Rimes, commented: "Vijay is a world-class leader with an outstanding track record of success in growing global FinTech franchises and driving groundbreaking product innovations. With his deep, practical expertise in leveraging next-generation technologies, particularly AI, Vijay is uniquely qualified to drive Rimes' strategy and lead the company into its next phase of market leadership and growth." "Rimes has built an extraordinarily successful business over the past 30 years—truly the gold standard for benchmark and index data," said Vijay Mayadas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rimes. "I am incredibly excited about this opportunity." In a world where workflows are increasingly driven by artificial intelligence, the need for trusted, independent, and carefully curated data—an "intelligence fabric"—is more important than ever.
