Founder Departs NAGA after Capex.com Acquisition
Ben
Bilski, the Founder of NAGA Group, announced his departure from the company
as the Chief Information Officer, just three months after Capex.com's acquisition
of NAGA, as reported by Finance
Magnates. Bilski's exit coincides with his pursuit of a new startup
venture. Having founded NAGA in 2015, Bilski transformed it from his SwipeStox
concept into a publicly listed forex and CFD broker.
Previously serving as the CEO until June 2023, he expressed a
desire to return to his platform vision roots. NAGA has been expanding into payment
solutions and cryptocurrencies and have seen significant growth, with 2023 revenue
reaching EUR 45.5 million and EUR 7 million in EBITDA. This is a marked improvement
from the prior year's EUR 13.7 million loss.

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
