PARIS—Stock-market operator Euronext on Thursday said it would
appoint a Santander executive as chief executive, ending a search
that began in April.
Sté phane Boujnah, 51, joins Euronext from Santander Global
Banking and Markets where he has been Head of Continental Europe
since June 2014. He is expected to start in his new role in
November after a shareholder meeting to approve his
appointment.
The appointment ends a search to find a permanent replacement
for former CEO Dominique Cerutti, who in April announced his
surprise resignation to take a job at consulting firm Altran
Technologies SA.
Mr. Boujnah was a senior adviser to the French Minister for
Economy, Finance and Industry Dominique Strauss-Kahn in the 1990s
and has previously worked for Deutsche Bank and Credit Suisse.
He was chosen for his "deep understanding of the industry,
strong sector expertise and on his strategic vision on the growth
prospects of Euronext," according to a statement from Rijnhard Van
Tets, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Euronext NV
The company said current interim CEO Jos Dijsselhof will remain
in this position until Mr. Boujnah is officially appointed.
