Finalto, owned by Hong Kong-based Gopher Investments, has onboarded Daniel Leis as the Sales Director. According to his Linkedin profile, he has already joined the London offices of the company.
The new appointment at Finalto, a provider of liquidity and trading technologies, came when the company has been broadening its reach through partnerships and product expansions. The company recently partnered with Gold-i and PrimeXM.
Leis joined Finalto from Saxo, where he spent a year and eight months as a Director and Senior Institutional Sales. Before Saxo, he spent about three years at the London offices of Interactive Brokers, working in its Institutional Business Development team. He brought more than 15 years of experience to his new role at Finalto.
As seen on LinkedIn, Leis started his career in 2008 with the Commodities Structuring Support team at Barclays Investment Bank. He then moved to the Private Wealth Management division of Goldman Sachs, where he spent about four years of his career. He further worked at the Private Wealth Division of RBC and Plurimi.
Finalto Strengthening Its Operations
Each of the two UK-registered entities of Finalto generated around $35.9 million in revenue individually. Revenue of the one offering brokerage services for leveraged products jumped by 84 percent, whereas its sister company, operating as a forex, CFDs, and spread bets broker, witnessed a 33 percent revenue gain.
Gopher acquired Finalto from Playtech in a $250 million cash deal closed in July 2022. Under the new ownership, the management of Finalto was also shuffled. Within a few months after the ownership was handed over, the company announced the departure of Ron Hoffman and Liron Greenbaum from Chief Executive and Chief Commercial Officer, respectively, and named Matthew Maloney as the new Group CEO.
Finalto also changed the leadership of Markets.com, its retail trading brand, by appointing Finalto Group’s CCO, Stavros Anastasiou, as Markets.com’s CEO. Recently, Markets.com onboarded a local CEO for its South African operations, hinting at an expansion in the region.
