Former head of ETF Securities joins T. Rowe Price

Kris Walesby, the former head of ETF Securities Australia, has joined T. Rowe Price as an ETF consultant.

While Walesby noted the role on his LinkedIn, a spokesperson for T. Rowe Price declined to comment on any relationship.

Walesby left ETF Securities last year after more than five years when Graham Tuckwell returned to Australia to take on an executive chair role.

Before his time with ETF Securities, Walesby was the head of capital markets for Invesco PowerShares in London and held senior roles with BlackRock and Deutsche Bank.
