The Futures Industry Association’s (FIA) board of directors has elected Gerald Corcoran as chairman and Jan Bart de Boer and Raymond Kahn as board members.
Cocoran has replaced Michael Yarian, managing director at Barclays, who stepped down after he became the head of the Barclays rates trading franchise in the US. He is based in Chicago.
Bart de Boer currently serves as the chief commercial officer of ABN AMRO Clearing Bank. He oversees the sales and relationship management teams in the firm’s 12 international offices.
Kahn is located in New York where he is a managing director of agency derivatives services for Americas at Barclays. He leads a team for the development and scaling of Barclays clearing services.
Walt Lukken, president and CEO of the FIA, said: “Cocoran has been a member of the FIA board for more than six years and an indispensable part of our growth and development. I look forward to having the benefit of his leadership and counsel.”
