The shift in ownership signified a significant moment as Mather, a guiding force for over four decades in CQG‘s journey, passed the reins to Moroney. As the incoming CEO, Moroney stressed a strategic blueprint prioritizing the company’s stability while diligently serving the best interests of all stakeholders, including customers and employees.
