Koegel joined Robinhood in 2022 and served on its leadership team during a period of growth for the company, Klarna said. Before that, he led investor relations at LPL Financial from 2015 to 2022, following 13 years at Bain & Company.

Klarna said in August that it was looking for a new finance chief after Neglen announced he would leave the role. Neglen had held the position for six years.
