After spending over thirty years in organizations such as the International Securities Services Association (ISSA) and Euroclear as well as major banks including Societe Generale and HSBC, industry professional Jason Nabi has joined GCEX. Based in the UK, Nabi will concentrate on driving growth from institutional and professional clients. His appointment comes as the prime brokerage firm aims to expand its global presence.

GCEX Adds Expert in Institutional Capital Markets and Digital Assets

Nabi brings a wealth of senior leadership experience to GCEX, spanning institutional capital markets, digital assets, and digital Financial Market Infrastructures. His career has seen him in leadership roles at several major firms, including Bosonic, where he was the Chief Revenue Officer, as well as Paxos, BNP Paribas, HSBC, Bloomberg, and IBM.

However, Nabi is not just a leader in traditional finance but also in the digital asset space. He has actively participated in industry bodies like ISSA and The Global Blockchain Business Council. According to the press releases sent to Finance Magnates, he strongly advocates for adopting new technologies, including digital assets.

At GCEX, Nabi will work closely with Lars Holst, the Founder and CEO, to expand the firm's digital asset growth strategy.

"Jason is very well known and widely respected in our industry, and it is a significant endorsement that he has chosen to join our team," Holst commented. "His insight, network, and breadth and depth of experience within banks and fintechs will be a huge asset to GCEX. I am looking forward to working with him to drive our ambitious growth plans forward, both in the UK and beyond."

Nabi himself is optimistic about his new role. He believes that GCEX is well-positioned for scaling, citing its strong foundations, robust technology, and collaborations with reputable partners, including regulated custodians. "I am looking forward to playing a major role in GCEX's next growth chapter," he added.

The move came a few months after GCEX onboarded another C-level executive from Saxo Bank. In May, Tilman Schultz became the Head of the Partnership. He is currently responsible for boosting the company's European growth.
