Zenfinex’s expansion has been characterized by strategic choices.
Zenfinex, a respected player in the FX and CFD trading industry, is pleased to mark its third anniversary this month. Established in 2017 and launched in July 2020 by Nick Cooke, an industry veteran and entrepreneur, Zenfinex has steadily built a solid reputation through thoughtful global expansion, adherence to regulatory standards, dedication to technological innovation, and a consistent focus on customer service.
Zenfinex’s expansion has been characterized by strategic choices. Originally based in London, it has quickly extended its reach, establishing a presence in Dubai, Vietnam, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Lebanon, Colombia, Tanzania, Sierra Leone, and most recently, Mexico. This global outreach speaks volumes of Zenfinex's adaptability and its commitment to serving a diverse clientele.
Zenfinex, a network of related companies, has a strong foundation in regulatory compliance as it is crucial for their operations. Zenfinex Limited has secured authorization from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), while its counterpart in the MENA region is licensed by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). Moreover, Zenfinex Global Limited operates under the purview of the Financial Services Authority (FSA), and Zenfinex Africa in Sierra Leone is authorised by the Central Bank of Sierra Leone. These diverse authorisations, obtained by different entities linked to Zenfinex, highlight their dedication towards maintaining regulatory standards and fostering client confidence through transparency and compliance.
Nick Cooke, Zenfinex's founder
In an industry driven by technology, Zenfinex has not merely kept pace in recent years but has often been at the forefront. Investing in its proprietary technology stack, Zenfinex ensures that it addresses the evolving demands of the CFD trading industry. Nick Cooke, Zenfinex's founder, asserts, “Our focus in 2023 and beyond is to efficiently cater to our clients while spearheading technological innovation to keep abreast with industry trends.”
Zenfinex's offerings are enriched by a multifaceted suite of services designed to meet the diverse needs of traders. A strategic collaboration with Acuity Trading, a pioneer in financial news analytics, allows Zenfinex to offer clients actionable market insights based on data-driven sentiment analysis. Additionally, partnering with Trading Central, a globally recognized specialist in technical analysis and investment research, further empowers Zenfinex’s clientele with robust research tools and market forecasts.
Understanding the significance of comprehensive market analysis, Zenfinex has also invested in establishing an in-house research and analysis division. This internal team, consisting of seasoned market analysts, works diligently to provide clients with timely and insightful analyses that can guide their trading decisions.
Furthermore, Zenfinex acknowledges the value of diversifying trading strategies. To this end, it facilitates a copy trading service, enabling traders to copy the strategies of their counterparts. This feature is particularly beneficial for those who may not have the time or expertise to develop their own trading strategies but wish to actively participate in the forex market.
Another noteworthy achievement is Zenfinex’s rapidly growing team, which now includes approximately 125 professionals worldwide. This team is fundamental in executing the company's vision and providing traders with an exceptional experience.
Reflecting on this milestone, Nick Cooke shares, “As Zenfinex celebrates its third anniversary, we remain deeply committed to our founding principles of transparency, innovation, and exemplary customer service. We look forward to continuing to serve our clients with the integrity and dedication they deserve.”

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

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.
