Bernard Dan

Bernard Dan is the CEO of OneChronos Markets, a smart market for institutional investors. OneChronos is a U.S. equities ATS designed bottom-up to fundamentally address the growing gap between how trading venues match orders and how traders need to execute. OneChronos is a Smart Market – the technical term for markets that match counterparties using mathematical optimization. Smart Markets have a proven ability to outperform traditional markets on metrics such as price improvement, liquidity, fairness, and transparency. Smart Markets enable Expressive Bidding – a tool that gives market participants the fidelity of voice trading and the advantages of an electronic venue. All market participants can benefit from the unique liquidity that Expressive Bidding generates. Operating a computationally intensive Smart Market at the speed, scale, and complexity of capital markets wasn’t possible until now. OneChronos is pioneering the artificial intelligence and technology that makes it possible.

Prior to their current role, Bernard served as an independent board member for NYISO, CEO of Sun Holdings LLC, and an independent director for New York Portfolio Clearing LLC. Bernard also held the role of CEO for MF Global Holdings Ltd. and was the CEO & President for both the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT) and Cargill Investor Services, Inc.
