Baxter is assuming the role of global head of buy-side sales and is tasked with driving new sales and strategic opportunities across the buy-side spectrum. His responsibilities cover a wide range of business areas, including the promotion of LBX Buy-Side, LiquidityBook’s cloud-based portfolio, order and execution management system.
Baxter, who holds a BA in communications from Villanova University, lands at LiquidityBook after more than eight years working with Eze Software Group, where he managed the company’s hedge fund sales for North America.
Prior to that, he served with Morgan Stanley Wealth Management from 2010 to 2013. That was preceded by a three-year tenure with the largest retail FX broker in the Unites States, Gain Capital.
Commenting on the new hire, CEO Kevin Samuel said: “We are thrilled to add James to our leadership team, especially amid our global expansion and the buy side’s continued need for modern solutions that enable them to trade efficiently. With his exceptional track record and valuable knowledge of legacy systems and the pain points they cause, he will play a significant part in propelling LiquidityBook to new heights in the coming year.”

With its modular technology and client-centric approach, there is no question LiquidityBook is a disruptor in the trading technology space. The firm is poised for rapid growth, and I greatly look forward to helping it continue its mission in markets around the globe.”
LiquidityBook 的 LBX 是一个 OMS/PMS/FIX 订单路由平台，作为基于 SaaS 的产品提供，并通过 AWS 的云架构交付。因此，它可以满足用户的各种需求，包括托管、远程连接、公司交易和头寸数据备份。
LiquidityBook 的技术可以集成到现有的交易系统中，使买方和卖方能够加强与客户的关系并参与全球市场，创造新的收入来源并降低成本。其服务涵盖整个交易生命周期，包括订单管理、投资组合管理、执行管理、FIX 网络连接、合规性以及交易前和交易后处理。
LiquidityBook has been actively recruiting talents for its business development units as the client base continues to grow. Last year, the firm added 30 new broker-dealer partners to LBX Connect, which is its proprietary managed global FIX network.
