nine months. Reflecting on his tenure, Makki expressed gratitude for the
experience and the opportunities it provided.

He described his time with the company as a valuable
learning experience.
“Working with such a talented group and getting to work with
the wonderful Dany Mawas was an absolute pleasure,” he wrote on LinkedIn.
“I will always be grateful for the wonderful moments I had
there, and the experiences and information I learnt were priceless. I want to
thank all of the Markets.com team for making this chapter so special. Let's go
on to fresh chances and challenges,” he added.
Makki now looks forward to pursuing new opportunities. His
professional background includes founding AlphaAtraders, where he focused on
management and financial analysis.

During his time at Markets.com, he played a key role in
overseeing the organization’s operations and strategic initiatives within the
MENA region, contributing to the company’s growth and navigating regional
market dynamics.
