Restructuring Charges RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
In October 2022, following our September announcement to realign our segments and leadership, we initiated a divisional alignment program with a focus on realizing the full potential of this structure. In connection with the program, we expect to incur $115 million to $145 million in pre-tax charges principally related to employee-related costs, consulting, asset impairments and contract terminations over a two-year period. We expect to achieve benefits, in the form of combined annual run rate operating efficiencies and revenue synergies of approximately $30 million annually by 2025. Costs related to the divisional alignment program will be recorded as restructuring charges in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
In September 2019, we initiated the transition of certain technology platforms to advance the Company's strategic opportunities as a technology and analytics provider and continue the realignment of certain business areas. In connection with these restructuring efforts, we retired certain elements of our market infrastructure and technology product offerings as we implement NFF and other technologies internally and externally. This represented a fundamental shift in our strategy and technology as well as executive realignment. In June 2021, we completed our 2019 restructuring plan and recognized total pre-tax charges of $118 million over a two-year period. Total pre-tax charges related primarily to non-cash items such as asset impairments and accelerated depreciation, and third-party consulting costs. Severance and employee-related charges were also incurred.
The following table presents a summary of the 2022 and 2019 restructuring plan charges in the Consolidated Statements of Income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020.
