FNG Exclusive… FNG has learned that CySEC and FSCA licensed Retail FX and CFDs broker Scope Markets is continuing its recent hiring spree following its takeover by Rostro Group earlier this year, adding Can Uyanik as Senior Business Development Manager. He will be based in Madrid, Spain for his new position with Scope.

Can Uyanik joins Scope Markets from Trive (formerly known as GKFX), where he was Country Manager Spain. He first joined Trive/GKFX in 2010, and had previously worked at Alpari and at TeleTrade. This actually marks the second departure from Trive’s Spain team in the past month, with Can’s deputy director in Spain Pedro Sánchez Bennai leaving to join AvaTrade, as was also exclusively reported here at FNG at the end of June.

As noted above Scope Markets was taken over by Rostro Group earlier this year. Rostro was founded in 2020 by former ACM/TradeTech (now Finalto) executive Roger Hambury, with ambitions to acquire and grow out companies in the Retail FX, CFDs, and crypto trading sector. After the acquisition closed Rostro named former Skilling, CMC Markets and Alpari UK executive Pavel Spirin as CEO of Scope Markets. The company also named former OANDA exec John Murphy as Chief Revenue Officer; hired Equiti exec Yaser Zidan as MENA Sales Manager; and added Antonia Droussiotou from Skilling as Head of Brand.
