The Supervisory Board of European Commodity Clearing AG (ECC) has appointed Dr Tobias Paulun as the new CEO of the clearing house, effective from 1 April. The 41-year-old, who holds a doctorate in engineering and economics, will relinquish his previous position as chief strategy officer of the European Energy Exchange AG (EEX).
Peter Reitz, who previously held the position of CEO of both EEX and ECC, will now focus entirely on his tasks as EEX CEO. The changes in the Management Board acknowledge the growing importance of the clearing business and risk management within EEX Group.
In addition to Tobias Paulun, the ECC board consists of three other members: chief operating officer, Dr Götz Dittrich, who is responsible for the operational business; Jens Rick, chief information officer, who is responsible for the operation and further development of the IT infrastructure at ECC; and Dr Clemens Völkert, who is overseeing risk management of the clearing house in his function as chief risk officer.
