4OTC Appoints Kyle Jannece
as Head of Business Development
Jannece,
who previously managed Global Sales and Business Development for CME Group's
eFix Matching Service, will focus on capturing requirements from banks entering
the Digital Asset space while expanding 4OTC's existing FX product suite.
At CME
Group (EBS), Jannece transformed the eFix Matching Service from a newly
launched product into what became the global central utility for banks to net
their client benchmark fixing risk. His background includes extensive
experience in Account Management and Product Development within the FX
industry.
“I’m very
happy to be part of such a dynamic and enthusiastic team,” said Jannece, “and I
look forward to meeting with banks and buy-side firms to find out how 4OTC can
help them optimize their connectivity in these rapidly evolving markets.”
Jannece began his career
over 20 years ago at ICAP before moving to EBS. After five years, he briefly
joined LCG before spending two years at LMAX Exchange. In 2015, he returned to
EBS and CME, where he has served as Head of Mid-Matching ever since.
SAB 121
Alexis Atkinson
The
appointment comes as the recent repeal of SAB 121 has opened the door for U.S.
banks to enter the digital assets market. Jannece joins a focused business
development team that includes Co-founder Alexis Atkinson and Head
of Digital Assets, Rob Wing.
“Kyle’s
initial focus will be to understand the requirements of banks entering the
Digital Asset space and ensuring our products are customized to meet their
needs,” commented Atkinson.
“The repeal
of SAB 121 now allows US banks to enter the Digital Assets market and with 1API
we have a battle-tested product, already in use for market connectivity by a
number of leading Dealers in the space,” he added.
4OTC
provides ultra-low latency, scalable connectivity infrastructure for trading
desks in both FX and crypto markets.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
