Independent investment consultancy bfinance has appointed Odi Lahav as Chief Operating Officer. In his new role, Lahav will oversee investment research, digital solutions, and corporate functions, including technology, legal, compliance, and HR.
Lahav, who brings more than 25 years of leadership experience across financial services, technology, and institutional consulting, joins bfinance from Apex Group, where he served as Global Head of Digital Products, overseeing the group’s portfolio of fintech solutions across Europe, APAC, and North America.
Prior to Apex, he held senior leadership roles spanning technology, data and analytics, and investment advisory services, including leading the global alternative investments group at a major ratings agency.
Over the course of his career, Lahav has also advised large institutional investors across a broad range of disciplines, including investment strategy, manager research, OCIO, private markets, digital product strategy, and operational execution.
This appointment underscores bfinance’s continued investment in talent and infrastructure to support clients navigating an increasingly complex and fast -evolving investment landscape.
bfinance celebrated its 25th anniversary and completed a management buyout in 2023, when it moved back into employee ownership under the ongoing leadership of David Vafai.
