HotForex Hires New Mexico Country Manager

Multi-Asset broker HotForex has hired finance veteran Justin Petsche as Mexico Country Manager.

In his new role, the experienced trader and consultant will be responsible for managing the company's dealings with Mexico.

After receiving his bachelor's degree in finance from the University of Wisconsin in 2003, Petsche worked as a financial advisor and independent trader for 15 years before founding his own consultancy company, according to information made public on his LinkedIn profile. The company, SharkFin Technologies and Consulting, is a Mexico City-based firm that advises firms that wish to operate in the LATAM region. He worked there for more than four years.

In 2014 he created JournalSqrd, a system which allows traders to record and analyse their trades at a level usually reserved for trading institutions.

Finance Magnates reported on HotForex in April when it hired German football star Michael Ballack to give trading tips to clients through a series of videos.

HotForex is an 'award-winning' Forex and commodities broker, licensed in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, according to the company website. It operates more than 500,000 trading accounts across 25 languages.
