Where are the biggest opportunities for brokers and vendors in 2023? See the answers to these and more next week!You will be speaking on the All-Star Roundtable: Mixed Trends panel, what do you think will be the highlight of the discussion and why should the audience attend it?Iskandar Najjar (Equiti Group): How is market volatility with all that is happening in the world today affecting our industry and business continuity, and how are businesses able to adapt to it; what is the future of the markets?What are the emerging trends that will impact our industry in 2023, and how does the industry need to adapt to these trends? How will digital assets shape our industry, and what is Equiti doing to lead the industry in terms of design, and the legislation of digital assets?Charlie White-Thomson (Saxo Bank): I think the highlight of the discussion will be trends around how the online trading eco system is evolving, particularly with more and more retail traders entering the market. But also, discussions around pricing and how to best weather recession storms. For anybody interested in the intersection of finance and innovation, this is a must-attend event.Wei Qiang Zhang (ATFX UK & ATFX Connect): I think the highlight could be the compliance and regulations related to recent MT4 app removal from App Store. I think it reflects the compliance attitude from regulators, banks, and other major suppliers. The other highlight could be the recent market volatility due to the unstable political and economic environments as well as the regional conflict.I would encourage more to people to attend as we can share some views or possible solutions for the recent incidents. It could be a critical time for our industry. With some many heads of industry, I am sure the audience can benefit from the inside knowledge and long-term visions.What are you looking forward to the most at FMLS?Iskandar Najjar (Equiti Group): The Finance Magnates London Summit provides a great opportunity to meet everyone who is at the heart of this business. It is always good to see the familiar faces from the other expos held during the year in Dubai, Cyprus, Bangkok, but the London Summit opens access to the Americas region, so it’s great to meet new people, and people that we don’t see during the year.Charlie White-Thomson (Saxo Bank): I’m excited about meeting decision makers at other online trading and fintech firms, but also learning more about the choppy waters of liquidity pools, which our Institutional FX Sales team will be talking about. And we’re also nominated for a few awards, so I’ve got my fingers crossed for that.Wei Qiang Zhang (ATFX UK & ATFX Connect): I am looking forward to meeting all the old friends and making some new ones. Hopefully we can build more client relationships and also connections on the liquidity side.Tell us a bit about what you do/your company/who you are looking to network with?Iskandar Najjar (Equiti Group): Iskandar Najjar, is the co-founder, and CEO of Equiti Group, a global multi-asset brokerage.
