Archer-Daniels-Midland Co.’s compliance chief Ben Bard is set to leave early next year after more than a decade with the Chicago-based commodities trader.

“Mr. Bard is leaving ADM for personal reasons and to make any other assumption is factually inaccurate,” ADM said in an emailed statement Wednesday. “Ben has been a valuable leader over the past 11 years, we appreciate his commitment and dedication to ADM as he supports the transition of his duties over the next several months.”
