MetaComp Pte Ltd, a licensed entity under the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has announced the appointment of Peter Luo (pic) as its new chief technical officer (CTO). Luo brings a wealth of experience and a track record in digital technology, blockchain, and capital market systems.

Having served the Dalian Commodity Exchange for 15 years as its head of the technology planning office and leading the technology cooperation with Nasdaq OMX and NYSE Euronext, Luo established the technical team of Wanxiang Blockchain and served as CTO and VP of Hashkey in 2017. He went on to serve as General Manager of BayConnect Technologies of HKEX. 

Luo's appointment comes at a pivotal time for MetaComp as the company continues to enhance and strengthen its proprietary Client Assets Management Platform. Luo will be instrumental in integrating advanced blockchain technologies with traditional financial services systems and expanding the platform's capabilities to serve MetaComp's rapidly growing client base better.

As we continue to innovate and expand our offerings, Luo’s expertise will be invaluable in strengthening our technical foundation and delivering cutting-edge solutions to our clients,” he added.

Meanwhile, Luo said, “I am delighted at this opportunity and look forward to creating more seamless technology to link traditional world financial assets with digital assets and crypto. The world of tech is changing rapidly, and my efforts will be to keep us on the cutting edge of that change.”

MetaComp and its parent company, Metaverse Green Exchange Pte Ltd, are dedicated to the seamless integration of crypto finance and traditional finance for the creation of a financial ecosystem where digital assets and conventional financial products coexist and complement each other, providing opportunities, growth, and innovation.
