Just saw that Andrea Remyn Stone got promoted to run LSEG's Data & Analytics division. She was already the Chief Product Officer there, so kind of makes sense they'd tap her to take over from David Craig.

Craig's been leading Refinitiv for almost a decade, and now that LSEG acquired the whole thing, he's stepping back. Andrea Remyn Stone is taking the reins starting July 2021, and Craig's sticking around as an advisor through the end of the year to help with the handoff.

Interesting timing with how the integration's going. Andrea Remyn Stone was already deep in the product side, so she probably knows the business inside out at this point. Craig seems pretty confident about it too - he mentioned the first quarter as a combined business went well, so they're handing off to someone who's been in the thick of it.

These kinds of transitions at big finance companies always take some planning. Wonder how smoothly the integration ends up going once Andrea Remyn Stone fully takes over. Feels like they're doing it the right way though, with overlap and everything.
