He continued, “As we approach the implementation of our new platform, Ovation, I am especially pleased to be working with Andrej and Rob as we plan for the future. Rob brings a wealth of knowledge in trading, markets and product development, including several years serving on OCC’s board, that will be invaluable to our future growth and the continued growth of our industry.”
