WASHINGTON, DC – Trish Foshée, the longtime president and CEO of the Institute for Financial Markets (IFM), will retire at the end of 2024.
Foshée has led the IFM for nearly 17 years and held successive positions within the organization for more than seven years prior. IFM is an affiliate of FIA and is its educational foundation.
“For more than two decades, Trish has brought her knowledge, experience and passion for educating about the cleared derivatives industry to the IFM. Thousands within our industry have benefited from her stewardship of the IFM, including myself, and we are eternally grateful for her many years of service,” said FIA president and CEO Walt Lukken. “Trish leaves big shoes to fill, and we wish her well in retirement.”
Established in 1989, the IFM is a nonpartisan, nonprofit educational foundation whose mission is to increase public awareness and understanding of the derivatives markets to the global economy. The Institute provides education through introductory textbooks on exchange-traded derivatives and e-learning courses on such industry topics as safeguarding customer funds, ethics, futures trading, market conduct and exchange rules.
Foshée has devoted her career to serving the IFM’s mission of educating the industry. She leaves the Institute well-positioned to fulfill the knowledge needs of industry professionals, as well as other stakeholders of financial market information, such as lawmakers, regulators, educators and the media.
