Exegy Names New C-Suite Executives
From L-R: David Taylor (CEO), Peter Feret (CFO) and Jason White (CTO).

Exegy, a provider of market data, execution system and advanced trading technology, has named new C-Suite executives. They include David Taylor who was promoted to Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Peter Feret who was appointed as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Jason White, who was elevated to Chief Technology Officer (CTO).

Exegy announced these new appointments on Thursday in a statement published on its website. The new top executives are longtime industry professionals with about two decades of experience. Taylor’s appointment as the CEO comes as James O’Donnell, who has been leading Exegy in that role for the last 17 years, retires from the apex position but remains a Board Member of the company.

Exegy Appoints Veterans into Its Leadership Team

Taylor is a veteran executive at Exegy who has served in product strategy and engineering roles. He joined the firm as the CTO in March 2005 and rose to become the Co-President in February 2021 and President in January this year. The executive, who spent over six years at Washington University in St. Louis in two academic roles, started out his career in 2002 as a Zurich Research Laboratory Intern at IBM in Switzerland.

On the other hand, Ferret just joined Exegy. However, he boasts 25 years of industry experience and has held top roles at various organizations. He joins Exegy from Ministry Brands, a cloud -based software and payment solutions provider that targets faith-based organizations, where he was the CFO.

In addition, he served as the CFO at Community Brands and ModusLink between September 2018 and January 2020. Furthermore, he worked as the Vice President of Corporate Finance at Scripps Networks Interactive, a company later sold to Discovery. Later, he would serve in the same capacity at the now-defunct entertainment company.

The third executive, White, has been working for Exegy for almost 20 years, having joined in September 2003 as a Hardware Engineer. He rose to become the Vice President of Managed Services Engineering in 2016. Until his appointment as the new CTO, White was the Vice President of Product Management at the company, a role he previously held between 2014 and 2016.

Meanwhile, Exegy previously onboarded Arnaud Derasse as the Chief Product Officer and Larry Waldman as the Senior Vice President for Customer Success and Support.
