Richard L. Sandor is an American businessman, economist, and entrepreneur. He is chairman and CEO of the American Financial Exchange (AFX) established in 2015, which is an electronic exchange for direct interbank/financial institution lending and borrowing. The AFX flagship product, the AMERIBOR benchmark index, reflects the actual borrowing costs of thousands of regional and community banks across the U.S. and is one of the short-term borrowing rates, along with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, vying to replace U.S. dollar Libor as a benchmark in the U.S.[1]

Sandor is chairman and CEO of Environmental Financial Products LLC, which specializes in inventing, designing and developing new financial markets with a special emphasis on investment advisory services. He is widely recognized as the "father of financial futures"[2] for his pioneering work in developing the first interest rate futures contract in the 1970s, when he served as chief economist and vice president of the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT).[3]

Sandor is also the founder of the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) – the world's first exchange to facilitate the reduction and trading of all six greenhouse gases.[4] In 2007, he was named the "father of carbon trading" by Time Magazine for his work in designing, developing and launching CCX and affiliated exchanges.[5] Among Sandor's academic roles, he is currently the Aaron Director Lecturer in Law and Economics at the University of Chicago Law School[6] and an honorary Professor at the University of Hong Kong and the School of Economics at Fudan University. He formerly taught at graduate and undergraduate levels at several universities throughout California, Illinois, New York, China and England.

On February 7, 2013, the University of Chicago Law School announced that Sandor and his wife Ellen R. Sandor are the principal donors to a $10 million endowment in law and economics at the University of Chicago Law School. The Sandors made the gift in honor of Sandor's mentor, Nobel Laureate Ronald Coase, Clifton R. Musser Professor Emeritus of Economics at the Law School. In their honor, the Institute for Law and Economics has been renamed the Coase-Sandor Institute for Law and Economics.[7][8]

Sandor is known for asserting that the next financial revolution will be in the convergence of the financial markets and the environment.[9] He is often credited for founding the field of environmental Finance. His first book Good Derivatives: A Story of Financial and Environmental Innovation,[10] was published by John Wiley & Sons in April 2012.

Early life

[edit]

Sandor received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Brooklyn College and holds a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Minnesota.

The Father of Financial Futures

[edit]

As a professor on sabbatical from the University of California, Berkeley in the 1970s, Sandor became the chief economist and vice president of the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT).[11] At the CBOT, Sandor not only pioneered the first interest rate futures contract,[12] but the most widely traded and imitated interest-rate futures in the world, the Treasury bond futures contract.[13] This revolutionized the field of finance and earned him the title of "father of financial futures." Sandor originally coined the term "derivatives"[14] to describe the futures and options contracts that were traded on the Chicago exchanges. Its definition was subsequently expanded to include not only regulated products on futures transactions, but any customized product traded off the exchange, i.e. bilateral OTC transactions. Sandor was honored by the CBOT and the City of Chicago in 1992 for the creation of financial futures.

Sandor was also a strong proponent of electronic trading at a time when most exchanges favored open-outcry. In fact, he had presented the case and designed the platform for electronic trading as early as 1970 – even before the concept of electronic trading was patented.[15] At Berkeley, he was the project leader of the California Commodity Research Project (CCARP), which looked at the feasibility of establishing a for-profit, all-electronic exchange in at the time when none existed.[16]

At the CBOT, Sandor championed innovative financial instruments such as event-linked derivatives. Sandor served as vice chairman of the CBOT Insurance Committee and was the originator and co-author of the catastrophe and crop insurance futures and options contracts.[17]

From 1991 to 1994, Sandor was chairman of the Chicago Board of Trade Clean Air Committee,[18] which developed the first spot and futures markets for sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission allowances and supervised the annual allowance auctions conducted on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.[19] He also led the effort to create the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI) – the first global index that tracks the financial performance of leading sustainability-driven companies worldwide.[20]

Sandor has held a variety of senior executive positions in financial service companies, such as Drexel Burnham Lambert, Kidder Peabody and Banque Indosuez.[21] Sandor has served on numerous Exchange committees and boards, including the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT), the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), IntercontinentalExchange (ICE), London International Financial Futures Exchanges (Liffe) and the International Advisory Board of Marché à Terme International de France (MATIF).[22] Sandor played an advisory role in helping Swiss Options and Financial Futures Exchange (SOFFEX)[citation needed] become the world's first electronic exchange.[23] Teaming up with Boston-based Battery Ventures, Sandor also helped to promote Liffe's electronic trading platform[24] and is credited for Liffe's successful contract – the universal stock futures contract.[25] He also assisted the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) on the design of the options contract for crude oil.[26]

Sandor has served several times as an advisor to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) on matters related to financial, energy and environmental futures.[27]

The Father of Carbon Trading

[edit]

Using Environmental Financial Products as the incubator, Sandor founded the Climate Exchange PLC (CLE) family of companies. They include Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX); the Chicago Climate Futures Exchange[28] (CCFE), a futures branch of the former; and European Climate Exchange (ECX), Europe's leading exchange operating in the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) and the benchmark for world carbon prices. Additional global affiliates included the Tianjin Climate Exchange in China, the Montreal Climate Exchange[29] in Canada and Envex in Australia. The emissions covered under the Chicago Climate Exchange were larger than that of Germany under the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme. It included 50 states and all major sectors of the U.S. economy.[30] Its membership represented 17 percent of the companies in the Dow Jones Industrial Average, and 20 percent of the largest CO2-emitting electrical utilities in the U.S., and 11 percent of Fortune 100 companies.[31]

Sandor and EFP are turning their focus to the feasibility of a market-based mechanism as a tool to address water quality and quantity issues. This follows on extensive studies done by Sandor and his team while still at Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX). Sandor and his group of researchers studied the potential of a water quantity exchange for the state of New Mexico; the viability of a water market in the Great Lakes region;[32] examined the potential benefits of implementing a rules-based exchange for water resources in Alberta, Canada;[33] and helped develop a pilot nutrient trading effort in Pennsylvania.[34]

In August 2002, Sandor was chosen by Time magazine as one of its "Heroes for the Planet" for his work as the founder of the Chicago Climate Exchange.[35] Five years later, he appeared in Time magazine's fifth annual list of "Heroes of the Environment" for his work as "the father of carbon trading." In 1992 Sandor served as an expert advisor to the UN Conference on Trade and Development on tradable entitlements for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.[36]

In June 2010, CLE was acquired by the IntercontinentalExchange (ICE).[37]

Awards

[edit]

In November 2004, Sandor was the recipient of an honorary degree of Doctor of Science (Honoris Causa) by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) of Zurich, Switzerland [38] for his work on the design and implementation of innovative and flexible market-based mechanisms to address environmental concerns. In 2010, Sandor received the John H. Dales Memorial "Leadership in Environmental Markets Award" from the Environmental Markets Association.[39][40]

Sandor is the recipient of the McGraw-Hill Energy Award (1999), the Life Time Achievement award from the Global Association of Risk Professionals (2001),[41] and the Milken Institute's award for Distinguished Economic Research (2003).[42] In May 2005, Sandor was named by "Treasury and Risk Management" magazine as one of the "100 Most Influential People in Finance."[43] He is also the recipient of the 2008 Financial Management Association's Outstanding Financial Executive Award,[44] and the Ernst & Young's Entrepreneur of the Year 2009 Award in the "green" category.[45] In 2012, Sandor received the World Federation of Exchanges (WFE) Award for Excellence. He was selected for this award in recognition of his work at the epicenter of environmental and financial markets for more than four decades.[46]

Board affiliations

[edit]

Sandor was a former director of American Electric Power (AEP),[47] one of the largest utilities in the United States and of the Volatility Exchange.[48] Sandor also served on the board of Clean Energy Trust,[49] a Chicago-based not-for-profit,[50] the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute and Lincoln Park Zoo. He is an advisory board member for the Center for Financial Stability,[51][52] a member of the Advisory Board of the Digital Dollar Project, a member of the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens Board of Trustees and a Senior Fellow at the Milken Institute.[53] Sandor and his wife, Ellen Sandor, are collectors of photography and are involved in numerous civic and charitable activities. They are major benefactors of the Art Institute of Chicago. He also served as a trustee for the International Center of Photography, New York. Ellen is the founder and director of (art)n[54] and an advisory board chair of the Gene Siskel Film Center.
