US stock exchange provider Nasdaq has hired Selena Singleton from online retailer Alibaba as head of strategic development.

Before her two years running business-to-business globalisation for China-based Alibaba, Singleton had been a director at insurer New York Life’s corporate venturing unit.

It is an important hire for Nasdaq, which in January appointed Jeremy Skule as chief strategy officer in a newly expanded role overseeing mergers and acquisitions, venture investments, and data and analytics.
