“We are very pleased to have our colleague, Marti Tirinnanzi, join ICE in her new capacity as a Director of the parent company,” said Jeff Sprecher, Founder, Chair and CEO of Intercontinental Exchange. “Marti is deeply immersed in key parts of ICE’s business and brings a wealth of expertise in risk management, regulation, derivatives, clearing, and blockchain technologies, all of which will benefit the company in a range of areas, including her longtime membership on the National Association of Corporate Directors.”

Ms. Tirinnanzi has broad experience driving transparency for derivatives pricing and financial reporting. She previously served in various senior financial executive positions in roles at MFX Currency Risk Solutions, RBC Capital Markets, and Chatham Financial, among others. In 2009, she was appointed Chair of the Clearinghouse Working Group of the Federal Housing Finance Agency to oversee the transfer of $3 trillion in interest swap contracts during the financial crisis.

Over their many years of service, they have provided our management team, and me, with indispensable advice, offered keen strategic insights, and helped shape the trajectory of ICE on the world stage.”
