Arjen Kuenen

CorpXSasia Ltd. was founded by Arjen in 2014 on the firm belief that the unbundling of equity commissions would result in a new market opportunity for Corporate Access. Arjen worked in different Asian and Emerging Markets equity sales roles, latest at BNP Paribas, and various other Investment Banks over the past 23 years, both in Asia and in Europe. He has built up a wealth of experience and contacts relevant to Equity, Asset Management and Corporate Access and is the driving force behind CorpXSasia and its sister companies. His intrinsic motivation lies in his general interest all things asian and in seeing the need and potential for fundamental change of old banking structures. He is convinced there is a bright future for a new way of organising corporate access based on skill, network and understanding the objectives of all parties involved.
