Futures Hall of Fame
From MarketsWiki
In 2006, at its annual conference in Boca Raton, Florida, the Futures Industry Association (FIA) honored past and present industry leaders for their contributions to the futures and options community by establishing the "Futures Hall of Fame." FIA was founded in 1955 in New York as the Association of Commodity Exchange Firms; thus the Futures Hall of Fame capped off 50 years of FIA history.
