Financial industry veteran Jonathan Goodman is stepping down from his position at the helm of Dundee Capital Markets Inc., and leaving the board of its parent company, Dundee Corp.
Dundee Corp. (TSX:DC.A) said Thursday it has accepted Goodman’s resignation from its board, and from his positions at Dundee Capital Markets, where he was president and CEO. Earlier this year, Goodman resigned his post as deputy chairman and chief operating officer of Dundee Corp., but retained his role at wholly owned subsidiary, Dundee Capital Markets.
“I am a significant shareholder in the company and I fully support management on its new initiatives which have afforded me the opportunity to pursue opportunities outside the company,” Goodman said in a statement announcing his departure.
Back in July, Dundee Corp. announced a reorganization that would create two new divisions, a merchant banking arm, and a wealth management division that consists of Dundee Capital Markets, Dundee Goodman Private Wealth, Dundee Securities, and Goodman & Company, Investment Counsel.
At that time, it was also announced that David Goodman had taken over as president and CEO of Dundee Corp., and that Ned Goodman became chairman of the board, and president and CEO of new merchant banking division.
