Gelvin serves as group operations and technology office (GOTO) chief operating officer at UBS, where he is responsible for strategic planning and operating management for GOTO, data governance and the technology investment portfolio across the firm. He has been with UBS for nearly 20 years.
Meanwhile, Herrick acts as chief product officer at the NYSE, a part of Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), where he is responsible for product development and innovation across all areas of the exchange business.
Modlin is the global head of prime services product development at Goldman Sachs, where he is responsible for Prime Services’ front to back efforts. Modlin joined Goldman Sachs in 2005.
Commenting on the new members, Kevin Kessinger, non-executive chairman of DTCC’s Board, says: “They bring extensive leadership skills, deep subject matter expertise and diverse experiences in financial services to the board at a time when the industry is looking to DTCC for enhanced support.
