JPMorgan Names International and EMEA Technology Investment Banking Co-Heads

JPMorgan Chase has reorganized leadership of its technology investment banking operations outside North America, appointing regional leaders to new international and EMEA co-head roles. The changes, announced September 8, 2026, place Mark Fiteny and Matt Gehl in charge of International Technology Investment Banking and add Pieter Himpe as co-head of EMEA Technology Investment Banking alongside Bill Hutchings. 7

International Technology Investment Banking: Mark Fiteny and Matt Gehl

Fiteny and Gehl were appointed co-heads of International Technology Investment Banking, according to a company memo seen by Reuters and confirmed by a JPMorgan spokesperson. 7

• Mark Fiteny was previously JPMorgan’s head of Asia-Pacific Technology, Media and Telecom (TMT) and New Economy Investment Banking. He will be based in Hong Kong. 7
• Matt Gehl was previously head of EMEA Technology Investment Banking. He will remain based in London. 7

The two bankers each have more than 20 years of experience and will support JPMorgan’s technology clients globally in their new positions. 7

EMEA Technology Investment Banking: Pieter Himpe and Bill Hutchings

Gehl’s move into the international role prompted a leadership change in the EMEA technology franchise. Pieter Himpe was appointed co-head of EMEA Technology Investment Banking alongside Bill Hutchings. 7

Himpe previously led JPMorgan’s EMEA Internet and Tech Services business within the technology investment banking division. Reuters described Hutchings as a veteran banker. 7

The announcement did not set out a public division of responsibilities between Himpe and Hutchings.

What the appointments mean

The structure combines JPMorgan’s former APAC and EMEA technology-banking leaders in a single international co-head arrangement, with Fiteny operating from Hong Kong and Gehl from London. At the EMEA level, Himpe’s promotion preserves a co-head model with Hutchings. 7

For technology clients, the stated remit for Fiteny and Gehl is global support; beyond that, JPMorgan did not disclose further details on reporting lines or the allocation of duties within the EMEA leadership pair. 7
