MoneyGram International has announced the appointment of Marc Winniford as its new Chief Financial Officer, a role he will assume in February. Winniford brings a wealth of experience from his 17-year tenure at Wells Fargo, where he held various senior finance positions. Most recently, he served as the CFO for Wells Fargo's Corporate & Investment Banking division.
