In that position, Fry worked with the institutional sales team to expand the client base and maintain existing business, according to his LinkedIn profile. His earlier role involved client relationship management and FX and CFD trade support for institutional clients.
Oversight Role Covered Institutional Position Checks
Fry also spent around one and a half years at J.P. Morgan Asset Management. He initially worked as a UK Funds Consultant before becoming an Oversight Analyst.
In that role, he was responsible for ensuring institutional positions were aligned between back-office operations and front-office portfolio managers within the required timeframes.
Edgewater Markets Adds Mauritius Licence
Fry's appointment comes as Edgewater Markets expands its regulatory and trading infrastructure. The company obtained an Investment Dealer licence from the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius, covering securities transactions, principal dealing, investment advice and portfolio management.
The licence followed its expansion of FX technology services for Gulf Cooperation Council currencies and Egypt.
Separately, Edgewater Markets was added to Gold-i’s MatrixNET liquidity management platform. The integration provides access to Edgewater’s FX, precious metals and non-deliverable forwards liquidity through the platform.
