M4Markets, a contract for difference (CFD) broker operating with a Seychelles license, has promoted Marilliza Karrera to the position of Head of Marketing.
Karrera joined M4Markets in November 2020 after spending over two and a half years at London-based broker, Tickmill where she worked first as a Marketing Officer and then as a Marketing Executive.
The M4Markets marketing professional announced her promotion on Thursday on LinkedIn, thanking Marilena Iakovou, M4Markets’ Group Chief Marketing Officer, 'for trusting me'.
Karrera, who switched from a teaching professional, began her marketing career in June 2015 in the Marketing Department of DeltaQuest Group, a Cyprus-based global consultancy firm.
A calculation of her career experience shows that she has seven years of marketing experience.
Before joining Tickmill as a Marketing Officer in May 2018, Karrera worked as a Content Writer at PrimeXM, a financial technology provider based in Cyprus.
Executive Moves in M4Markets
Karrera’s promotion comes some months after Themis Christou departed from M4Markets after working with the broker for nearly two years as the Group Head of Marketing.
Earlier in the year, the forex and CFD broker as part of efforts to strengthen its presence in Africa hired David Alagbada, who is well-versed in the African forex industry, as its Regional Head for Africa.
Meanwhile, M4Markets, which launched a social trading app at the beginning of the year, also recently completed a capital raising round with the sale of a 'significant stake' to an unnamed strategic investor.
The CEO of M4Markets, Deepak Jassal, in a statement explained that raising capital and attracting investors has been a priority of the broker over the past few months.
He added that the broker has been undergoing exponential growth over several months.
“Over the past few months, we broke our monthly record over and over again, and we feel that the new capital along with the expertise and leadership brought by the new investor group will enable us to change leagues altogether and increase substantially the value for our clients,” Jassal explained.
