The Board of Di­rec­tors of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Stock Ex­change Lim­it­ed (TTSE) has con­firmed that a new Chief Ex­ec­u­tive Of­fi­cer (CEO) is at the or­gan­i­sa­tion’s helm, as of April 1st, 2021.

“On be­half of the Board, I am ex­cit­ed to wel­come Eva in­to the po­si­tion of CEO,” Chair­man of the Board, Ray A. Sumairs­ingh said. 

“It is equal­ly an ex­cit­ing time for busi­ness in the re­gion, and in par­tic­u­lar, the cap­i­tal mar­ket ecosys­tem. Eva’s busi­ness acu­men, ex­pe­ri­ence and en­thu­si­asm about the Or­ga­ni­za­tion, es­pe­cial­ly dur­ing these glob­al chal­leng­ing times, make her a fit leader to de­vel­op the busi­ness, fos­ter and strength­en the re­la­tion­ships with our stake­hold­ers and en­hance the op­er­a­tions of the TTSE,” the TTSE Chair­man not­ed.
