Neubach has chaired TASE’s board of directors since 2014.
“I have recently received requests from several companies to take an active role in their operations, which could potentially create a conflict of interest,” Neubach said in a letter to the board of directors, according to a stock exchange statement. .
“These companies operate in the financial technology field, which I personally find fascinating.”
TASE’s board of directors will meet in the coming days to discuss Neubach’s decision and begin a recruitment process for a new president, the statement said.
