Marks the fifth global office for Leverate.

Leading Forex platform provider Leverate has announced the opening on a new R&D center in Kiev, Ukraine, to open at the end of August. The office will be headed by Yossi Roash, who spent the last year as VP Affiliate Business at Leverate.

The Kiev office will focus initially on mobile solutions around the Leverate platform, but is planned to grow and fully support Leverate’s Tel-Aviv based development team.

Leverate has been on a rapid global expansion in the past year, as the forex industry’s comeback and growth in volumes have precipitated the birth of new forex brokerages around the world. Just in June Leverate announced the opening of an office in Japan, and late last year opened an office in Hong Kong.
