Regulatory veteran strengthens SUI-focused treasury strategy at Nasdaq-listed firm
SUI Group has appointed former U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) commissioner Brian Quintenz as an independent director, adding deep regulatory and policy expertise as the company advances its digital asset treasury strategy centered on the SUI token.
Quintenz will also serve on SUI Group’s audit committee, reinforcing oversight as the firm expands its exposure to digital assets. His appointment follows a governance adjustment in which the company’s chief financial officer transitioned from a board seat to an observer role. As a resulthe board now consists of five members, three of whom are independent, in line with Nasdaq listing standards.
Regulatory and Crypto Policy Experience
Quintenz previously served as a CFTC commissioner, where he played a key role in oversight of derivatives markets, financial technology, and the early regulation of Bitcoin futures. He was unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate after nominations spanning multiple administrations.
More recently, he was global head of policy at a leading crypto investment firm, directing regulatory strategy and government engagement across the digital asset sector. He also currently sits on the board of a CFTC-regulated event-based derivatives exxchange.
SUI Group said Quintenz’s appointment adds regulatory credibility and capital markets expertise as it builds an institutional-grade digital asset treasury platform linked to the Sui blockchain ecosystem, while continuing its specialty finance operations.
