In her new role at MayStreet, Kimmel will leverage her regulatory and market expertise to help the firm continue its growth.

Kimmel has also previously been a member of the SEC’s Equity Market Structure Advisory Committee (EMSAC), where she chaired the customer issues subcommittee.
Before Refinitiv, Kimmel worked at the Financial Information Forum as a managing director. She worked with broker dealers, exchanges and vendors on issues involving regulatory and market data technology.
Commenting on Kimmel’s appointment, Patrick Flannery, Maystreet CEO, says: “Manisha Kimmel is extremely well-regarded across the industry, possessing a background, level of knowledge and breadth of relationships that is second to none.”
Flannery notes: “We believe MayStreet is poised to be a transformative force for regulatory initiatives globally and think that Kimmel will be instrumental in helping us realise our significant ambitions.”

With its innovative technology, market position and entrepreneurial environment, the firm has all the elements needed to succeed. I am excited to join the team and help continue moving the business forward.”
