TMGM will continue to push the boundaries of excellence in the fintech sector.
TMGM, a trailblazer in global online trading and investment services, took center stage as the Gold Sponsor of the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission's (VFSC) groundbreaking Second Symposium on Virtual Assets.
This pivotal event, held on Thursday, June 27, 2024, in Port Vila, convened an elite gathering of finance brokers, regulators, government officials, and international experts to chart the course for Vanuatu's burgeoning fintech sector.
The aptly themed "Shaping Tomorrow – Exploring the Role of the Financial Dealers Licence and Virtual Assets in National Development" symposium was a crucible for innovative ideas and strategic discussions.
Branan KARAE - VFSC Commissioner
Distinguished speakers, including Rick McDonell, former Chairperson for the Asia Pacific Group (APG) on money laundering, and Loretta Joseph, VFSC's digital asset regulatory framework consultant, provided invaluable insights into the evolving landscape of virtual assets and financial integrity.
Thought-provoking panel discussions delved into critical topics such as aligning with international standards set by APG, FATF, and the European Union, tackling the EU blacklist challenge, optimizing Financial Dealers Licence (FDL) requirements, and propelling Vanuatu's fintech industry forward.
The symposium concluded with the prestigious FDL awards ceremony, celebrating local business practices, professional development, and community service excellence. TMGM's prominent role as Gold Sponsor highlighted its steadfast commitment to Vanuatu's financial evolution.
This dedication was further exemplified by TMGM's recent accolades: the company was honored as First Runner-up for Best Community Support 2024 and recognized for achieving the Highest Client Numbers in 2024.

Executive Interview | Dor Eligula | Co-Founder & Chief Business Officer, BridgeWise | FMLS:25
In this session, Jonathan Fine form Ultimate Group speaks with Dor Eligula from Bridgewise, a fast-growing AI-powered research and analytics firm supporting brokers and exchanges worldwide.
We start with Dor’s reaction to the Summit and then move to broker growth and the quick wins brokers often overlook. Dor shares where he sees “blue ocean” growth across Asian markets and how local client behaviour shapes demand.
We also discuss the rollout of AI across investment research. Dor gives real examples of how automation and human judgment meet at Bridgewise — including moments when analysts corrected AI output, and times when AI prevented an error.
We close with a practical question: how retail investors can actually use AI without falling into common traps.

Brendan Callan joined us fresh off the Summit’s most anticipated debate: “Is Prop Trading Good for the Industry?” Brendan argued against the motion — and the audience voted him the winner.
In this interview, Brendan explains the reasoning behind his position. He walks through the message he believes many firms avoid: that the current prop trading model is too dependent on fees, too loose on risk, and too confusing for retail audiences.
We discuss why he thinks the model grew fast, why it may run into walls, and what he believes is needed for a cleaner, more responsible version of prop trading.
This is Brendan at his frankest — sharp, grounded, and very clear about what changes are overdue.
