Binance Names Richard Teng as
Head of Regional Markets
Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has appointed Richard Teng, its former
Regional Head of Asia, Europe, and MENA, to serve as the Head of Regional
Markets, overseeing operations outside the US. The appointment was revealed
through Teng’s Linkedin profile.
Teng, who is set to
begin his role on Monday, according to a report by Reuters, joined the crypto
exchange as the Chief Executive Officer of Singapore in August 2021. He is an
experienced financial expert, having held several roles in companies, such as
Singapore Exchange Limited, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and the Abu
Dhabi Global Market.
Teng’s appointment comes
when Binance, ranked the top crypto exchange by trading volume, is battling
regulatory pressure on a global scale. Most recently, the exchange was forced to end its
operations in Canada citing stringent policies related to digital assets.

Dukascopy Implements
Revised Trading Conditions
Effective from 5 June 2023 at 19:00 GMT, the India 50 Index (IND.IDX/USD) will no longer
be listed by Dukascopy, prompting changes in trading conditions. As of 29 May 2023, clients will no longer have the option to initiate new positions or
increase their existing exposure in this particular instrument.
For
Dukascopy clients currently holding positions linked to the India 50 Index, the
bank provides the freedom to decide their course of action until Friday 5
June. Any positions held beyond the specified closure time on that day will be
automatically liquidated at the prevailing market price.
These
revised measures take immediate effect and pertain to both Dukascopy Bank and
Dukascopy Europe, affecting the valued clients of both entities.
Scope Markets Names New Global Sales Director
Rostro-owned Scope Markets has strengthened its team with David Andres Restrepo as the Global Sales Director. He is based in London.
Restrepo joined Scope Markets from Eurotrader, where he was the Head of Global Sales for the last three years. Before that, he had a short five months stint at ActivTrades as the Head Of Business Development LATAM.
He entered the trading industry with his role at the now-shuttered OvalX (then ETX Capital). He joined the broker as the Financial Sales Executive in May 2014 and parted as the Head Of Business Development Manager IB/Affiliates at the end of 2019.
CME Group Fines Macquarie Futures
Derivatives exchange giant CME Group has slapped Macquarie Futures USA LLC, which provides execution and clearing coverage, with a fine of $20,000 for violating NYMEX rules.
"On May 24, 2023, a Panel of the NYMEX Business Conduct Committee ('Panel') found that on November 28, 2022, Macquarie carried a long contract position for its customer in December 2022 Henry Hub Natural Gas futures through expiration and failed to assess its customer's ability to take delivery and to ensure that the open positions in the physically delivered contract were liquidated in an orderly manner prior to the expiration of trading," the official announcement stated.
"Additionally, the Panel found that when Macquarie transferred the positions to another participant capable of taking delivery, it failed to include the proper indicator such that the transactions cleared as transfers."
Though Macquarie had already settled the charges, it neither accepted nor denied the allegations.
CQG Brings New Features
CQG, a provider of high-performance technology solutions for traders, has brought new updates to its CQG One and CQG Desktop platforms. The new features include the ability to override limits vs. stops setting on order tickets, the ability to duplicate bracket orders, the addition of HMS info to fill reports, and adjustable hedge account balance details.
In addition, the CQG One platform's DOMTrader received order placement via mouse down vs. mouse up.
"We hope that these updates help improve your trading workflow. We continually strive to improve your CQG One and CQG Desktop experience," the announcement added.
Osaka Exchange Adds New Derivatives
Japan's Osaka Exchange has expanded its offerings with the addition of six new derivatives products: Nikkei 225 micro Futures, Nikkei 225 mini Options, 3-Month TONA Futures, S&P/JPX 500 ESG Score Tilted Index Futures, FTSE JPX Net Zero Japan 500 Index Futures, and Nikkei 225 Climate Change 1.5℃ Target Index Futures.
"In recent years, a trend toward smaller investments in the cash equity market has increased demand for more precise risk management tools. Therefore, we have decided to introduce these two products, whose contract units are one-tenth of the existing "Nikkei 225 mini" and "Nikkei 225 Options," to reduce the notional amount," said Ryusuke Yokoyama, the President and CEO of Osaka Exchange.
"As a result, we will be able to offer a wider product lineup, from small-lot to large-lot. We expect that this will enable futures and options to be used by investors for various purposes, which will further revitalize the market."
Sharakah Invests in Fintech Beehive
Oman's Sharakah, a government-backed joint stock company, announced its investment into Beehive, a Dubai-headquartered peer-to-peer lending platform. With the strategic investment, the two companies will help the growth of the SME economy.
"This partnership with Beehive marks an important milestone for Sharakah in our mission to drive SME development in Oman and support the diversification of our economy," said Ali bin Ahmed Muqaibal, the CEO of Sharakah.
"Through our collaboration with a reputed innovative fintech platform, we aim to contribute to the growth of the SME sector and provide fast, accessible finance to empower businesses. Together, we will create a favorable ecosystem that empowers small businesses and contributes to Oman's overall prosperity."
Beehive allows businesses to borrow from OMR 20,000 on repayment terms between 6 and 36 months. Since its incorporation in 2014, the fintech has facilitated over AED1.5 billion to GCC-based SMEs. On top of that, Beehive's CEO revealed that the company facilitated over OMR 2 million in SME funding in the last six months of its operations in Oman.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
