Binance.US Appoints Former Uber Executive as New Head of Legal
The Unites States branch of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance has appointed a new head of legal.
Krishna Juvvadi, former global head of operations compliance at Uber, will be leading Binance.US legal and compliance team forging better relations with regulators. The exchange is currently looking to hire 30 lawyers, largely in data privacy and regulatory counsel roles.
As Uber’s chief regulatory counsel and its first regulatory attorney, Juvvadi secured favorable laws and registrations at local, state and federal levels in the U.S.
In a statement, Juvvadi said:
“I have been impressed by the significant, purposeful steps the company has taken in recent months to bolster its legal and compliance efforts.”
Former Uber executives are finding their way to Binance. Last year, Brian Shroeder took over from Brian Brooks as Binance.US CEO after his role of head of strategy and business development for Uber in Asia Pacific from 2016 to 2018.
