Pirum Systems has gained legal guru Eva Luterkort from Goldman Sachs to head up its new in-house legal team.

Luterkort’s extensive experience in global markets includes prime brokerage, securities lending, agency lending and balance sheet/collateral management. Luterkort has also been a lead in regulatory matters, including the Թ Financing Transaction Regulation and the Central Թ Depositories Regulation, as well as Brexit planning and implementation.

Given the growing complexity of the securities finance ecosystem, Pirum says it has created an in-house team to cover legal contracts, compliance, risk and regulations and appointed Eva Luterkort as general counsel.

Luterkort qualified at law firm Linklaters, as part of a six-year tenure, where she specialised in capital markets, investment management and banking, including two secondments at Nomura and Lehman Brothers.

From the end of 2013 until March this year, Luterkort worked at Goldman Sachs as executive director and senior counsel in the firm’s prime services legal and securities financing transaction divisions. There she supported the principal securities lending, agency lending, short-term interest rate market making and firm funding desks with respect to balance sheet and liquidity transactions.

“I am thrilled that Pirum has been able to attract someone of Eva’s experience and capability. She will quickly help us improve customer experience, as well as industrialising our legal, risk and compliance functions,” Pirum CEO Phil Morgan tells SFT.

Luterkort says: “Through my previous work in the SFT space I already knew Pirum as a highly-regarded vendor and have been following the company’s progress over the years with interest.

“Pirum is an impressive company with a market-leading offering and a long track-record of success as a trusted service provider to leading financial institutions across the globe.

“I am thrilled to be joining the exceptional team and look forward to leveraging my experience as a financial services lawyer to deliver future growth and continued success.”
