European Commodity Clearing, the Leipzig-based clearing house, has appointed Christopher Mura as chief operating officer and a member of its executive board of directors.

The ECC is the clearing service for the European Energy Exchange’s spot and derivatives transactions, France’s Powernext exchange, and OTC energy transactions.

The appointment completes a transition that began when Maik Neubauer, who was COO of both ECC and EEX, moved to become chief financial officer and chief risk officer at the clearing house in June 2008.

On January 1 Mura replaced Neubauer as a director of EEX and its COO, and on January 16 he was chosen to take over as COO at European Commodity Clearing.

The Federal Financial Supervisory Authority and the Bundesbank have since confirmed his qualification as a general manager under the German Credit Services Act.
