Time Warner Cable exec joining Equifax board

Robert Marcus, the newly named chairman and chief executive officer of Time Warner Cable Inc., will join the board of directors at Atlanta-based Equifax Inc.

Equifax, a credit reporting company, said Robert Marcus will begin serving as a director on Nov. 1. He is currently president and chief operating officer at TWC, but will take over as chairman and CEO in January.

Equifax Chairman Richard Smith said in a statement that his company will benefit from Marcus’ experience in operations, strategy, acquisitions and working in a regulated environment.
