He joined Scope Markets from London-based Capital Index, where he was a part of the institutional sales team for six months.

Before that, he was with GKFX, the retail brokerage operated by Global Kapital Group. There, he spent four years in roles around derivatives sales, e-FX trade operations and institutional sales. In addition, he worked at Prime Wealth Group and Halo Financial.

A Global Brand

Scope Markets operates globally with licenses obtained from several regulators, including the ones in Cyprus, Belize and Mauritius. Moreover, it has a prominent presence in Africa as it is regulated in South Africa and is one of the very few regulated brokerage platforms in Kenya, which is considered to be one of Africa’s major untapped markets.

The brokerage brand was acquired by Roger Hambury’s Rostro Group earlier this year in an all-cash deal. However, neither of the companies disclosed the financial terms. Furthermore, it was very strategic as the services of Rostro and Scope were complementary to each other with little operational and market overlap.
