Kit Lee, Director of Technology Solutions & Head of Integration, BNY Mellon's Pershing
Accomplishment(s): I took on the Head of Integration role at Pershing last year to shape the Integration Strategy for Pershing. Integration has become a critical part of the financial services space with the emergence of innovative fintech firms. We're currently focused on developing new products that will help make integration faster, easier, and offer more choices for our clients.
I also work closely with Pershing's strategic clients on their technology strategy and collaborate with them on delivering the best experience to users. I have also had the pleasure of running Pershing's Integration Advisory Council of fintech partners. I'm thrilled to have a front row seat in helping shape integration and technology strategy for Pershing and our clients, as well as the industry.
How to get more women into WealthTech: There's a lot of advice out there, but the one I take to heart most is that women need to be role models and help motivate and lift others into leadership positions.
I've been fortunate working at BNY Mellon as there's a strong Diversity & Inclusion culture. I also had the privilege to serve a two-year term as the Global Co-chair for Women in Technology (WIT) at BNY Mellon.
During my time leading WIT, my team and I put together education programs, advocacy programs, and networking programs to help women in technology learn, grow, and thrive.
