The move marks another senior executive departure for GKFX after the UK subsidiary of the company lost its Managing Director Joe Rundle after he headed the firm for a very short period of time in August. His appointment was preceded by a one year tenure from Jacob Plattner.

After several senior departures from the subsidiaries of GKFX, the company, which has been expanding into the UK and European market, has been faced with a talent shortage. GKFX has committed substantial resources after securing a three year contract as an official trading partner of Italian football club AC Milan.
