Trading Technologies Rehires Tim Geannopulos as Chairman and CEO

Trading Technologies International, Inc. (TT), a leading provider of electronic trading platform, has announced the appointment, effective immediately, of Tim Geannopulos as its new Chairman and CEO, succeeding Rick Lane who will be parting ways with TT to pursue a new opportunity.

Geannopulos is no strange to TT, having worked at the company previously as Executive Vice President, Global Head of Sales between 1999 and 2014, according to his Linkedin profile. He comes back to TT with decades of financial technology experience. His most recent roles include consulting in the fintech space and co-founding and leading Neurensic, a provider of AI platform for trading, compliance, surveilance and banking which was acquired by TT in October 2017.

"Tim will be instrumental in managing the key partner transactions we anticipate this year and will guide our strong team through the next chapter of growth and expansion," said Harris Brumfield, majority shareholder of Trading Technologies.

After Rick's departure from TT, he will continue to facilitate client migrations to the TT® platform and to bring TT's technology vision to strategic partners. Brumfield has voiced his praise that Rick has been a tremendous leader and a visionary who has enabled TT to redefine institutional trading and market access technology.
