Scope Markets Hires Ying Chan as Chief Operating Officer
- The company is boosting its operational team as it continues investing in growth and new products
Scope Markets is adding a new senior hire to its team, this time in Cyprus. The company’s office in Limassol, where the operational base of the company is located, is getting expanded as the broker hires industry veteran Ying Chan.
Chan comes with a significant background in quantitative finance and software development. Scope Markets has been investing in talent heavily, welcoming several senior industry figures since launching its expansion effort last year.
In January, the firm welcomed former Saxo Capital Markets CFO, Diya Patel, while last month the firm announced the hire of Daniel Clark to boost the company’s institutional sales department.
Chan spent over a decade developing a variety of trading platforms for many companies in the industry, including Katla Trading, Alpari, FCI, GKFX, and Algolabs. His expertise in software development and quantitative finance is the perfect fit for the Scope Markets team in Cyprus, which is working on the next generation of products from the company.
The brokerage continues its expansion effort after over the past year the company not only committed to boosting its team but also signed a sponsorship deal with West Ham United.
