Sep 18, 2025

Intercontinental Exchange, Inc. (ICE) has announced a significant expansion of its Board of Directors, increasing its size from 10 to 11 members with the appointment of The Rt. Hon. the Lord Hill of Oareford CBE.

Aug 7, 2023

Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and Black Knight have entered into a timing agreement with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) on August 6, 2023, which was announced on August 7, 2023.

On July 13, 2023, ICE and Black Knight entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement to divest Black Knight's Optimal Blue (OB) business division to Project Badger Holdco Inc., a subsidiary of Constellation Software Inc., for $700 million.

The $700 million consideration comprises $200 million in cash and a $500 million promissory note from the purchaser, bearing interest at 7% per annum and maturing in 40 years.
