July 24 (Reuters) – Australian stock exchange operator ASX Ltd said on Friday that CFO Andrew Tobin ​intends to retire.

The announcement ‌comes two months after the bourse operator appointed Euronext executive Anthony Attia as its top boss following the abrupt resignation ‌of ​long-time CEO Helen ⁠Lofthouse earlier this ⁠year.

Here are some details:

• Tobin joined ASX in 2022 and has led the finance, treasury, strategy and ​corporate affairs teams over the period.

• ASX interim CEO Darren ⁠Yip said Tobin ⁠has agreed to remain CFO ​while the company finalises the appointment ​of a successor.

• “Andrew has made a ‌significant contribution over the past four years as ASX navigated a demanding operating environment,” Yip added.

• ⁠ASX has faced heightened regulatory scrutiny following a series of operational issues, including a ⁠company-name ‌mix-up in August 2025 ⁠and an outage of its ​announcements ‌platform in December 2025.

• ​The company ⁠reiterated that incoming CEO Attia will assume the role on September 1.
