Husam Al Kurdi has resigned as Deputy CEO of SquaredFinancial Group after two years and five months in the role to focus on his own venture. The multi-regulated brokerage firm announced the executive’s departure in a statement.
Along with the resignation, Al Kurdi quit his role as CEO of SquaredFinancial EU, a Cyprus-based role he has been fulfilling since November 2019, according to his LinkedIn profile. However, the top executive will remain with the brokerage as an advisor and collaborator, SquaredFinancial said.
Al Kurdi joined SquaredFinancial in 2019 after over seven and a half years at the online trading provider, ADSS, where he served in various capacities, including as Head of Product Management and the Operations Manager.

Speaking about his exit, Al Kurdi noted that he was going after his own dream and venture. He thanked Ghanem for the opportunity to “do what [he] loved the most.”
“What SquaredFinancial and I have is a true partnership,” said Al Kurdi. “In the past few years, we accomplished a lot together; and I cannot but wish this family every success in all its endeavors."
