They are Diarmuid O’Hegarty, the LME’s chief operating officer, Garry Jones, the former CEO of NYSE Liffe, and Martin Pratt, the chief operating officer of Triland Metals Ltd., said the people, who asked not to be identified because the information is private. The new CEO will succeed Martin Abbott, 53, who said in June he would leave at the end of the year.
