Bill’s roots in the information business go back to when he co-founded PayNet in 2000 with the belief that when commercial lenders are assured of risks, they’re more likely to make credit available, unlocking opportunity for small businesses. PayNet, an industry-standard for EF credit assessment, was later acquired by Equifax. Bill led Equifax Commercial Information until 2024. Additionally, Bill has served on several boards including ELFA, Canadian Finance and Lease Association, Innovative Lenders Platform Association and the Federal Reserve Bank’s Advisory Council on Agriculture, Small Business and Labor. He is currently a member of the Small Business Council at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

Outside of work, Bill is an avid runner, swimmer and cycler and also performs for charitable causes and fun with his band, Artificially Hip. They have raised money for charity events such as Band Together to help raise money for The Blessed Sacrament Youth Center in the North Lawndale community in Chicago.

Barry got his start in the pits at the Chicago Board of Trade (CBOT). Over the course of his career, he has acted as a catalyst for the transformation of the capital markets. At both PayNet and later Equifax, Barry was responsible for 20%+ growth while partnering with lenders to help them manage underwriting and portfolio risk more efficiently, while accelerating growth. Prior to joining PayNet, Barry spent 19 years in financial services, including as President and Founder of Struan Partners, LLC, a futures broker group in US Treasuries at the CBOT. Barry has served on a number of boards and committees including the ELFA and CBOT’s 30-year Treasury Bond Pit Committee.

Barry is an enthusiast wakeboarder, paddle boarder, cross trainer, and White Sox fan. Philanthropic involvement included Northern Illinois Food Bank and the BOLD (Black Organization for Leveraging Diversities) network.
