Mr Bocker, who was born in Sweden, made his name on the global stage as a savvy dealmaker who helped to create the Nordic exchange group OMX, then led its eventual merger with Nasdaq. After a short stint as president of Nasdaq, Mr Bocker was lured to Singapore in 2009 to take over SGX. Mr Bocker in 2015 chose not to seek a renewal of his contract. That decision came as SGX was under fire for a number of serious trading outages. A charismatic man with a quick wit, Mr Bocker made Singapore his home following his SGX appointment. Even after leaving the exchange, he continued to live in Singapore, where he ran his family’s investment office.
