Michael Novogratz’s Galaxy Digital (GLXY) has hired former Point72 chief financial officer Anthony Paquette to serve in the same role at the crypto financial services firm.
He will replace Alex Ioffe, who will transition into a senior adviser role, the company said in a statement on Friday.
Paquette previously spent four years as the CFO at Steve Cohen’s hedge fund Point72, leading the firm’s global finance, treasury, and broker relations, among other things. Before that, he worked at SoFi, JP Morgan Chase and Bank of America.
“I am thrilled to join Galaxy, whose reputation as a world-class operator and investor in digital assets, digital infrastructure and other emerging technologies precedes it,” Paquette said in a press release. “I look forward to expanding upon Galaxy’s best-in-class finance team and helping further cement the firm as the preeminent industry leader.”
Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz thanked Ioffe for building a robust finance team and preparing the firm for a potential U.S. listing.
The Toronto-listed company has been trying to go public in the U.S. through a listing on Nasdaq for some time. However, it is still awaiting approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to move its headquarters from the Cayman Islands to Delaware, which it filed for approval in February 2023.
