Maritime e-commerce network INTTRA names new CEO

Ocean shipping e-commerce network INTTRA recently named John F. Fay as its new CEO, according to a company statement.

Fay joined INTTRA as chief executive July 21, leaving his position at Newedge Group, a brokerage and clearing-services company, where he was senior managing director and global head of commodities and currencies, the statement said.

Fay joined Newedge in 2009 as CEO of Newedge USA and head of the Americas Region, INTTRA said. He also served as a board member of Newedge's joint venture with CITIC Industries in Shanghai, China. Prior to Newedge, Fay was Co-CEO of Instinet LLC, a leading global electronic institutional agency broker, where he had previously held the role of co-president, head of Europe and Asia, according to the statement.

"As INTTRA accelerates its strategy to deliver superior technology solutions and information services to customers worldwide, it is clear John is the right leader for the company," Jeff Ganek, INTTRA chairman, said in the release. "With over two decades of experience in financial technology, electronic transaction processing and global financial exchanges — where he created new business value through easy access to global information — John brings the right combination of expertise, strategic vision and collaborative leadership to INTTRA."
