Jürg Spillmann has been appointed deputy chief executive officer of the German derivatives exchange, Eurex, to replace Otto Nägeli, who left the exchange in March.
Spillmann joined Eurex at its formation in 1998 from the Swiss Futures and Options Exchange (Soffex), when the derivatives exchange merged with Deutsche Terminbörse (DTB). He heads up Eurex's IT division and is a member of the executive board.
