Global Payments adds two directors to board after Elliott builds stake
Sep 29, 2025 5:47 AM

Sept 29 (Reuters) - Global Payments ( GPN ) said on

Monday it has appointed two directors to its board in

collaboration with activist hedge fund Elliott Investment

Management.

The move comes months after Elliott, one of the world's

biggest activist investors, built a sizeable stake in the

payments firm as it looks to narrow its focus solely on

processing payments for businesses.

Patricia Watson and Archana Deskus have been appointed to

Global Payments' ( GPN ) board, effective immediately.
