Anthony Papaevagorou, Head of Sales at MetaQuotes Software:
“MT5 was previously struggling to keep up with MT4 and our other offerings, we are victims of our own success....MT5 has become a new generation platform and have seen greater growth in the platform over MT4 in every month since July 2016...Do not expect to see any developments to come out of MT4 ever again. It's slowly dying out...100% of our efforts are invested in MT5".

Workshop: OpenAPI and OpenBank: Facilitating authentic and unique client experiences through collaboration
Christopher Truce, Director of OpenAPI, Saxo:
“We are currently in a new economy...Presently the user comes first with an emphasis on generating value – what is needed is an API technology stack...Value is created with aggregated services, though this is shifting to a more experience-based economy...Institutions are focused on a client tailored experience towards the individual, which has spurred themes from big data to other areas...Presently there is an emphasis on driving up economic value through providers’ ability to offer customer experience – we see this with full stack businesses."
