FIS board chair Lee A. Kennedy retires
Jacksonville Business Journal – by Rachel Witkowski Staff reporter
The executive vice chairman and director of Fidelity National Information Services Inc., Lee A. Kennedy, retired from his role Monday.
Kennedy was on the board of directors since February 2006 and was president and CEO of the company (NYSE: FIS) until it acquired Metavante Technologies Inc. Oct. 1. Frank Martire, who was chairman and CEO of Milwaukee-based Metavante before the acquisition, became president, CEO and director of FIS after the deal closed. Kennedy then became executive vice chairman of the board.
“It has been a privilege to work with the highly talented board members, management team and employees of FIS,” Kennedy said. “The new leadership team is off to a strong start, and I have great confidence in the future of this company.”
The announcement released by FIS stated Kennedy resigned effective immediately “in order to devote more time to outside interests.”
