The NYSE is part of Intercontinental Exchange Inc. (NYSE: ICE), a global provider of technology and data. Earlier this year, NYSE announced that NYSE Texas was coming to Dallas, several months after the Texas Stock Exchange revealed their formation plans.
The NYSE said it has signed a lease for its headquarters at OId Parkland and expects it to open next year.
“We welcome Bryan to our team to lead our efforts to expand in the Lone Star State,” Martin said in a statement. “We were impressed with his vast experience working in the Texas government and his commitment to the state’s pro-business landscape. We believe Bryan is the right person to lead this exciting new initiative for the NYSE and I look forward to working with him closely in this capacity.”
NYSE said that Daniel brings extensive experience in public policy, most recently serving as the chairman of the Texas Workforce Commission, where he promoted the growth of Texas’ employers and workforce through collaboration with TWC’s education partners, local officials, and industry leaders.
Before joining the TWC, Daniel was on Texas Gov. Abbott’s senior staff, where he led the Office of Economic Development and Tourism. Previously, Daniel was the Texas State Director for Rural Development and Chief Administrator for Trade and Business Development at the Texas Department of Agriculture.
“It’s an honor to be a part of the greater NYSE team and a testament to our great state that this global powerhouse has recognized the opportunity for a local capital markets ecosystem in Texas,” Daniel said in a statement. “I have spent my entire career working to support the state of Texas, and I’m excited for this next step to lead NYSE Texas and drive this important phase of growth for the Texas economy.”

In June, TXSE Group announced plans to launch the Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE), focused on enabling U.S. and global companies to access U.S. equity capital markets via a “fully electronic, national securities exchange." In the months since, that's led to endless discussion of the impact of North Texas' "Y'All Street." It was capped by yesterday's announcement that the TXSE had raised over $135 million to date as it named members of TXSE's board—including former Texas Governor and former U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry; former SEC Commissioner Rick Roberts; and Alex Bussandri, the global head of strategy at Citadel Securities.
