Gay Huey Evans will rejoin the International Swaps and Derivatives Association as vice-chairman of the board of directors and nonexecutive chairman for Europe.

She chaired Isda from 1994 to 1998.

Based in London, Huey Evans will advise Isda’s board and management on public policy issues and strategy in Europe.

“We are delighted that Gay is returning to Isda’s board, where her counsel will be extremely valuable,” said Eraj Shirvani, chairman of Isda and head of fixed income EMEA at Credit Suisse, in a statement.

“She has been a leader in the financial markets and over-the-counter derivatives industry for two decades, holding key positions within government and global banking institutions, as well as at Isda itself.

“Gay’s rare depth of talent, combined with a fierce knowledge of the industry, will undoubtedly help Isda confront the challenges and maximise the opportunities that lie ahead of it.”
