Thursday, October 2nd 2025, 12:23PM
Gidney succeeds Trevor Matthews who has retired after more than a decade in charge.
Matthews has been part of the FNZ journey since 2013, first as a non-executive director and, from 2019, as chairman of the APAC Board. Before joining the board, he was also one of FNZ’s earliest and strongest advocates in the UK, where he was instrumental in introducing the FNZ platform to major financial institutions and helping to establish the company’s first partnerships.
During his time as chairman, FNZ has achieved significant growth and established strong momentum across the region, including securing partnerships with some of the region’s biggest and most respected financial institutions. Matthews has played an important role in guiding the business through this period of expansion.
Gidney joined the APAC Board in 2023 as a director and chairman of the audit committee. He brings more than 30 years of experience in investment banking and corporate advisory, having advised leading global financial institutions on strategy, capital raising and governance.
In addition, Gidney has a deep understanding of FNZ’s business model and the evolving needs of the financial services sector in APAC. His appointment reflects FNZ’s commitment to strong governance and its ambition to accelerate growth across the region.
