Scope Prime Continues Hiring Spree: Onboards Veteran with Over 30 Years’ Experience

Scope Prime, the institutional liquidity unit under the Rostro Group, has continued to strengthen its team. It has announced the addition of Gaby Kanj, an industry veteran with over thirty years of experience.

The Focus Is on MENA

In the new role, Kanj will focus on Scope Prime’s operations in the Middle East and North African markets. He will be responsible for strengthening the company’s existing client relationship team in the region.

“Gaby brings with him a wealth of industry, product, and regional experience that will provide significant value to the MENA team at Scope Prime,” said Daniel Lawrance, the company's CEO.

“We are working with a growing number of financial institutions in the area and are receiving ever more complex requests for assistance as more entities gain a fuller understanding of what we do. Gaby’s extensive first-hand experience will be invaluable both for us and the companies we work with,” he shared.

Many Key Hires by Scope Prime

The appointment came only a day after Scope Prime announced it hired Lochlan White, the former EMEA Chief Commercial Officer of 26 Degrees, for a similar role but with a global scope. After 11 years, White parted from 26 Degrees, a company run by Gavin White as the Group CEO.

Other key appointments at Scope Prime include Andrew Taylor as Head of APAC and Mirian Rostian as Head of Southeast Asia.

The official press release shared with Finance Magnates highlighted that during his long career in the industry, Kanj held senior roles in brokerages operating in the Middle East and Cyprus. He also consulted and advised several other financial institutions and trading platforms.

Kanj also acknowledged that Scope Prime “is going through a rapid phase of expansion.” He added: “Both the global footprint and the development of a highly sophisticated tradable universe of assets reflect the company’s desire to innovate, and I’m confident that my market experience will support these goals.”

Apart from the hiring, Scope Prime is also expanding its reach through partnerships. Recently, Centroid integrated liquidity pools of Scope Prime through API connections.
