“It is with great pride and enthusiasm that I announce a significant milestone in the journey of Sky Links Capital,” commented Daniel Takieddine, the CEO of Sky Links Capital. “We have successfully acquired the prestigious Securities and Commodities Authority United Arab Emirates license, further solidifying our commitment to excellence, transparency, and innovation in the financial markets.”

Takieddine, the former CEO of BDSwiss for the MENA region, founded Sky Links Capital in the middle of last year. He undoubtedly leveraged the experience gained with his former employer, with whom he also secured the same SCA license for BDSwiss in June 2024.

The company specializes in multi-asset trading services across equities, commodities, futures, forex, and cryptocurrencies, leveraging technology-driven platforms and risk management tools.

“Our team has worked tirelessly to meet the stringent requirements set by the SCA,” added Takieddine. “This license empowers us to expand our offerings and enhance our capabilities to better serve individual traders, corporations, and institutional clients, both locally and globally.”

Sky Links Capital Chooses Centroid

Takieddine’s brokerage has partnered with fintech provider Centroid Solutions to enhance its trading infrastructure and strengthen its market presence.

This collaboration incorporates Centroid's technology into Sky Links Capital's platforms, offering improved access to liquidity, advanced real-time risk management tools, and more efficient trade execution services.

The integration is designed to optimize order execution for clients while enhancing connectivity with liquidity providers.

“We are excited to be working with Daniel and his team, and believe our solutions will enhance the trading experience for his customers,” commented Cristian Vlasceanu, CEO of Centroid Solutions.
