Capital.com Buys OvalX and Taps Market Professionals

Capital.com is a rapidly expanding fintech company providing online retail trading platforms. It maintains a worldwide presence with branch offices situated in Cyprus, the UK and Australia, with a massive user base of over 7 million registered investors. The platform's success is evident from the 83% growth in user accounts reported in 2022.

As exclusively reported by Finance Magnates, Capital.com took steps to purchase the client assets of forex and CFDs broker, OvalX. To support the new deal, Capital.com, in the statement, noted that it has appointed Niamh Byrne, the former Head of UK B2B2C Sales at IG Group, as its Head of the UK and Ireland.

"Under the terms of the agreement, OvalX will offer some of its existing retail and professional clients the opportunity to transfer their accounts to Capital.com. This will ensure continuity of service for OvalX clients and allow them to continue trading without disruption," both companies said in a joint statement shared with Finance Magnates in February.

Additionally, Capital.com has been actively bolstering its executive team recently, tapping into the talent pool of IG Group executives. In December, the broker hired Greg Adams, a veteran executive with IG Group, as its Head of Risk. Additionally, a month earlier, the company brought on board Alessandro Capuano, who had served as IG Group's Head of Exchange Traded Products, to take on the role of Head of Europe at Capital.com.
