And, following a brief garden leave, Mr. Rogers plans to join FCA regulated institutional FX and CFDs broker Global Market Index Limited (GMI UK), as the company’s new COO.

He had joined Pepperstone from Admiral Markets, serving as CEO of the UK arm of the Estonian based FX broker for more than two years. Earlier is his career Mr. Rogers had spent a significant amount of time at both SG Warburg and HSBC, in their market making operations. GMI has been growing rapidly the past 18 months making a number of key hires under the direction of CEO Ashraf Ebid.
