Online brokerage and global API platform provider Tradier has announced the appointment of Stefan McVeigh as its VP of Product.

In his new role, Stefan McVeigh will be responsible for leading the product roadmap for key initiatives but also being the voice and bridge between the growing needs of 290 plus firms that leverage the Tradier API and the current product stack. He will play as the anchor for the upcoming launch of Crypto, Futures and the Marketplace products at Tradier.

Mr McVeigh brings to Tradier a deep sense of entrepreneurial leadership, hustle and a passion to serve active retail investors globally. He has spent a better part of his career in the retail online investing sector and had in the past been responsible for the launch and success of some of the widely used retail self-directed and advisory products in the market. His career includes critical leadership roles at Ally Invest and Horizon Investments.

“To fill this critical leadership role, Tradier sought a product leader that not only had a passion for what retail active investors look for but also had the depth and experience in capital markets” said Peter Laptewicz, President of Tradier Brokerage. “At a time where Tradier is experiencing record growth and has become a critical part of the retail infrastructure in the market, Stefan will play a critical role in serving our consumer base.”

“I have followed Tradier over the years and connect deeply with their mission and vision. I’m extremely excited for the opportunity to join the Tradier management team and be a part of a group that is changing the way retail brokerage services are delivered,” Stefan McVeigh said. “The Tradier team has always put technology at the heart of their products. I look forward to working with the team to bring new asset classes to our customers and filling the market gap with unique products for the active retail investor.”
