Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE:ICE), a leading operator of global exchanges and clearing houses and provider of data and listings services, today announced that its Board of Directors has elected Ann Cairns and Duriya Farooqui as new Directors effective March 3, 2017.

Ms. Cairns is the President of International Markets for MasterCard. She previously held banking and operational roles at global institutions such as ABN-AMRO and Citigroup.

Previously, Ms. Farooqui was a principal at Bain & Company, and prior to that served as the Chief Operating Officer of the City of Atlanta.

"We are very pleased to welcome these strong leaders in their respective fields to our board of directors," said Jeffrey C. Sprecher, ICE's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Ann's experience in international finance, public policy and governance, along with Duriya's background in government and operations will bring valuable insights and expertise."

Ms. Cairns commented, "I am delighted to join the board at this dynamic time of convergence of finance, markets, data and technology where ICE has demonstrated leadership on a global scale. I look forward to working with the board as the company continues to drive growth and innovation."
