South Street Securities Holdings has appointed Laurie Ferber and Supurna VedBrat as the newest members of its board of directors.

Both women bring extensive industry experience and strategic insights to the role, which will further strengthen the company's leadership and its ongoing growth initiatives.

During a three-decade career, Ferber has acquired extensive legal and business expertise. As the executive vice president and general counsel of MF Global Holdings, Ferber played a pivotal role in managing legal, compliance and regulatory matters.

Ferber worked for 21 years at Goldman Sachs, where she is recognised for her contributions
to the creation of Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and the launch and leadership of the firm’s Economic Derivatives business.

Further, Ferber has served on various industry boards and committees, including the Futures Industry Association and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's (CFTC’s) Global Markets and Technology Advisory Committees.

VedBrat brings a wealth of trading trading expertise to her new role on the board of directors. With more than 25 years of experience in the financial and technology industries, VedBrat has held leadership positions at BlackRock, Bank of America, ING Barings and IBM.

Her vision and strategic approach have been instrumental in developing world-class trading organisations and driving innovation across the financial markets ecosystem, according to South Street Securities.

In addition, VedBrat’s deep understanding of market structure and her ability to navigate rapid industry changes make her a valuable addition to the board. As a talent leader and dedicated mentor, VedBrat serves on the Advisory Board of Women in Derivatives (WIND), which looks to contribute to the advancement of women in the workforce.

CEO and chairman of the board at SSSHI James Tabacchi comments: “We are delighted to welcome Laurie Ferber and Supurna VedBrat to our board of directors.

“Their exceptional expertise and industry knowledge will be invaluable as we navigate the evolving financial landscape. We look forward to their contributions in shaping our strategic direction and driving our continued success.”
