Who in the cosmos is Vincent Georgel-O'Reilly?!

It's a mystery, but ... 'But what, boss?' State Street is going to help us. 'Is this a PR email?' You bet it is, Voice!

Let's do this!

London, 22 March, 2021 - State Street Corporation has announced that it has appointed Vincent Georgel-O'Reilly as regional segment head for alternatives in Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

Oh. Tell us more!

In this new role, O'Reilly covers hedge funds and private markets and is responsible for advancing the investment services strategic direction, product structuring, sales and operations in EMEA. He reports to Paul Fleming, global head of alternatives and Joerg Ambrosius, chief executive officer of EMEA.

Wow! It sounds like a big job. Never mind. 'What do you mean ... never mind?!' I mean ... how is Vincent going to concentrate on his position in the cosmos, his mystical development and all that, when ... he's going to be covering hedge funds and private markets? 'He's going to be responsible for advancing the investment services strategic direction, product structuring, sales and operations in EMEA, too.' Ha! He won't have time for anything else.

Ha, ha, ha! Christ!

'Ha!'

Rather him than me. Do you know what I mean, dear kook(s)?

'Camilla says do you want a picture of Vincent, boss?' No - is the short answer. I'm sure he's lovely. It's just ...

Anyway ...

State Street has a strong history of innovation in the alternatives industry and is committed to supporting alternatives clients with best-in-class expertise, processes and technology. O'Reilly will work closely with Fleming and Ambrosius, to ensure strategies are well-coordinated at a global level, while also tailored to the local market in EMEA to meet clients' needs and bring market-leading solutions to clients.

Okay, okay. It's not ... Listen! I want to know what our Paul makes of all this. 'You mean the cosmos stuff, mystical development, and that?' Yeah. Paul won't let us down.

Look -

"Vincent is an excellent leader who has a deep understanding of the market and our business, and brings with him an impressive track record of delivering results across various asset classes," says Fleming. "He is strongly positioned to lead our alternatives business in EMEA, and work together with clients to be a true value-added partner as they look to expand into new markets, asset types and attract different investors."

Uh ...

That's strange, isn't it? 'Very strange.' I thought I knew Paul, you know? 'People change, boss.' Yeah, I know.

Never mind.

Anyway ...

During his 14 years at State Street, O'Reilly has held senior positions including global head of the financial institutions group, global head of strategic initiatives, chief operations officer for the EMEA sales team and international head of the mergers and acquisitions group. He has been the driving force for several key initiatives across the business including building strategic vision, securing external growth and driving new revenue. Prior to joining State Street, he held positions at AĆ©roport de Paris Management, Rothschild Nomura JV and AXA IM.

Yeah, yeah. That's enough now.

I'm disappointed.

Anything else?

You want more?

'They want more!'

Jesus!

I ain't got no more.

'Music?'

Uh.

All right. Listen to Yoni performing Yellow.
