CQG is set to undergo a transformation as a group of its senior executives prepare to acquire the company. The firm, renowned for its technology solutions tailored to market makers, traders, brokers, commercial hedgers, and exchanges, has been privately held since its inception in 1980.

The company's Founder, Tim Mather, has been at the helm, steering its growth for over four decades. However, an agreement has been reached, with the transaction expected to be completed this month. According to the company's official statement, ownership will be transferred from Mather to the senior officials.

CQG's Strategic Transition Plan

Ryan Moroney, who took the reins as the CEO in 2021, will succeed Mather. He has expressed enthusiasm about this transition, highlighting the firm's focus on a transition plan that would ensure the stability of the company.

Moroney said: "Tim and I have been intently focused on a transition plan when he was ready to step away that would put the company in the strongest position while serving the best interests of our customers and employees. This is a fantastic outcome for all of our stakeholders, and we're so grateful to Tim for his integrity and unwavering devotion to the business, our people, and our unique culture for more than four decades."
