CSE APPOINTS ADAM CONYERS AS SENIOR VICE-PRESIDENT AND CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER

The Canadian Securities Exchange has appointed Adam Conyers as senior vice-president and chief financial officer of the CSE. Bob Medland, who held this role from the inception of the company, retired at the end of 2015.

Richard Carleton, chief executive officer of the CSE, commented: "Adam brings a unique perspective to the role given his background in the Canadian capital markets with exchange operators as well as early stage companies. I am personally thrilled to be working with him again as we look to accelerate our growth and position the CSE as the exchange for entrepreneurs. I, and the CSE team, also wish Bob well on his retirement."

Mr. Conyers is a CPA, holds his ICDD designation and has a BComm from the University of Toronto.
