Advanced Markets Strengthens UK Team: Hires New Business Development Head

Oksana Remez has left Finalto to join the UK unit of Advanced Markets as the Head of Business Development. Her departure from Finalto came after she spent more than nine years there.

“Accelerating Growth”

In her new role, she will lead the company’s global sales strategy, drive business development, and foster client relationships.

“Her vision and leadership in sales and business development will play a crucial role in accelerating our growth and enhancing the value we deliver to our clients,” said Anthony Brocco, CEO of Advanced Markets (UK) Limited, which is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).

Advanced Markets provides institutional foreign exchange liquidity and prime-of-prime services to the forex and contracts for differences (CFDs) trading industry. The Group is headquartered in the United States and operates globally in several jurisdictions. It expanded its footprint in the Middle East and North Africa region by broadening its partnership with Daman Securities and establishing a new entity.

Meanwhile, the UK unit, which onboarded Remez, managed to increase its annual revenue for 2023 by 6.8 per cent, but witnessed a net profit drop of 69.3 per cent to $114,635.

An Experienced Industry Executive

Remez brings about 15 years of experience to her new role at Advanced Markets. Her most recent role was as a senior business development executive at Finalto (previously Trade Tech), where she joined in late 2015. Notably, Finanalto's ownership also changed recently, as Hong Kong’s Gorper bought the unit from Playtech in a $250 million cash deal.

Her other industry-related role was at GAIN Capital, where she spent about five years, first as a Private Client Account Executive and then as the Institutional Business Development Manager.

“Given the market volatility changes in the past few years,” said Remez, “Advanced Markets, with its focus on ultra-low latency, institutional grade execution and aggregation of best-in-class liquidity providers, is uniquely positioned to deliver Tier 1 multi-asset solutions to the clients, which aligns with my vision and makes me excited to start the new chapter.”
