Roei Gavish

Roei Gavish stepped down as CEO of TRADE.com at the end of 2024 after leading the company for more than 10 years.

Gavish’s Career Spans Playtech, William Hill

Following his departure, Gavish took on new roles. In January 2025, he became the Executive Chairman of Global Business Development at Jeen.ai. He is also the Chairman of the Board at Group 107, a position he has held since December 2024. Both roles are based in the Tel Aviv District, Israel.

Before joining TRADE.com, Gavish worked at Playtech from August 2010 to April 2014. He was the Head of a Business Unit, overseeing product roadmaps and business operations. Playtech PLC is listed on the London Stock Exchange under the ticker LON: PTEC.

Earlier, he spent two years at William Hill. From September 2008 to August 2010, he served as the Head of a Business Unit in Israel.

TRADE.com Expands with Prop Trading Services and Italian Market Launch

Meanwhile, TRADE.com has introduced a new initiative under the brand TRADE.com Challenges, offering prop trading services to cater to the growing demand for funded trader opportunities. The service, powered by Tplus Technologies Limited in Cyprus, aligns the broker with industry players like OANDA and IC Markets.

It offers demo accounts and funded accounts ranging from $10,000 to $200,000. Although accessible via the Trade.com platform, the service is unavailable in Japan, Canada, Belgium, and the USA. TRADE.com emphasizes security and regulation in its operations.

In addition, TRADE.com has expanded its services into Italy, receiving a regulatory license from Consob through its local entity, Trade Capital Italia SIM. The platform offers access to US and EU-listed equities and will soon introduce CFDs.

The Italian branch is closely linked to private bankers and consultants, providing investment fund support. The firm views Italy as a key market, focusing on local operations and strong banking ties, with plans to extend its presence across the EU and potentially enter the US market.
