Mixed Year for Alpha FX
The broker experienced a mixed 2020 as the revenue jumped in the previous year, but the net profit dropped. Finance Magnates earlier reported about an important executive move in Alpha FX when the company’s independent Non-Executive Director, Matt Knowles moved from the Board to an active role of strategic advisor to play an important part in the Group’s strategic processes.
"Despite the challenges faced, the team ensured 2020 was another consecutive year of strong growth across all divisions of the business. The lifeblood of Alpha's success is our people, and I am extremely proud of our team for rising to the challenge to deliver in the way they have. It is a real privilege to lead the Group, and I believe the progress made this year will set us in very good stead long into the future,” Morgan Tillbrook, Founder & CEO of Alpha, said in a statement.
