Saxo Bank GP2 Race Car with Marco Sørensen

Saxo Bank, the online Multi-Asset trading and investment broker based in Denmark, has announces today its continued sponsorship of the Danish GP2 race car driver, Marco Sørensen.

Sørensen switched to GP2 from Formula Renault 3.5 Series mid last season and achieved his maiden GP2 victory in October 2014.

Saxo Bank has already sponsored Marco Sørensen since 2014 and has pledged its support until at least the end of 2015. The financial details of the deal were not disclosed at this time.

Sports sponsorship are popular marketing tools for Forex and binary brokers. Partnerships with successful teams is an established way of raising brand awareness and respectability for the industry. Just last week, we reported about a deal between CWM FX and the Chelsea Football Club and Plus500’s agreement with Atlético Madrid.
