VT Markets Names Ross Maxwell to Lead Global Strategy Operations
Maxwell brings over two decades of financial markets experience across major financial hubs including London and Hong Kong. He previously spent three years with Marex's London branch as a Dealer for the EMEA region, followed by eight years at BGC Partners as a Senior Dealer for the same area.
At VT Markets, he will spearhead the development of educational content and trading resources while providing strategic direction for the company's global growth initiatives.
“VT Markets has evolved significantly on both brand and trading levels. We have expanded our product offerings to include over 500 share CFDs and bond CFDs, with more to go, catering to diverse trading preferences,” commented Dandelyn Koh, Global Brand & PR Lead at VT Markets.
In his new role, Maxwell will focus on creating educational materials combining technical and fundamental analysis to help traders better understand market dynamics and make more informed trading decisions. He will also contribute market insights and thought leadership on global economic trends and investment strategies.
VT Markets currently operates in over 160 countries, offering trading access to more than 1,000 financial instruments through its mobile platform.
VT Markets has recently partnered with Newcastle United, unveiling a special jersey marked with the number “77” to commemorate the collaboration. The number holds symbolic value for VT Markets, representing growth and prosperity, aligning with the firm’s brand principles. In football, a player’s number signifies identity, and VT Markets selected “77” to echo its commitment to these ideals. Peter Silverstone, Chief Commercial Officer of Newcastle United, expressed pride in the partnership, stating that Newcastle United is well-suited to support VT Markets' expansive growth objectives across global markets.
Earlier this year, The Financial Commission admitted VT Markets as a new member, amid a rising demand for independent dispute resolution within the FX industry. This organization acts as an impartial mediator, assisting in the resolution of disputes between brokers and clients when direct solutions are unattainable. Specifically benefiting the participants in the CFD, Forex, and cryptocurrency sectors, the commission offers a more efficient alternative to traditional regulatory processes, bypassing the need for arbitration or legal intervention in local courts.
