ITI Capital have been an exciting leader across a growing number of markets and asset classes. As the dynamics of Globalisation have evolved since the Great Financial Crisis, ITI has been successful by looking forward to trends in technology as well as managing capital flows in traditional assets.
I’m thrilled to be joining the team which has a strong track record navigating markets and delivering for clients. I’m particularly focused on the expansion of ITI’s digital assets trading capabilities, as the global evolution of financial services and capital flows accelerate out of the Great Coronavirus Recession with an increasing focus on technology.
