FNG Exclusive… FNG has learned that retail trader copy trading platform The Portfolio Platform has hired London based executive Nandik Barbhaiya as the company’s new Chief Marketing Officer (CMO).

Nandik Barbhaiya was CMO of Retail FX and CFDs broker ETX Capital from 2020-2022, leaving after ETX Capital was merged with Oval Money and rebranded as OvalX, with the Oval team taking over the marketing and other functions. Less than a year later OvalX was shut down and its client base sold off to Capital.com. Prior to joining ETX Mr. Barbhaiya was Global Head of Marketing at FXTM, and also previously worked in marketing at OANDA.

The Portfolio Platform was founded in 2020 by investment industry veterans Edward Davies and Lane Clark. The company offers an SaaS platform which enables retail investors to benefit from elite and sophisticated trading strategies via a monthly subscription model in just few clicks, by linking them to a broker account of their choice anywhere in the world.

Edward Davies and Lane Clark, Co-Founders of The Portfolio Platform, said:

“We are delighted to have signed a new CMO in Nandik Barbhaiya. His extensive experience in building and growing FinTech businesses to big global brands makes him perfect for the role as we transition from local to multinational. Things have moved even faster than we hoped, but we know that we’ve got the right man for the job to take us to the next level and beyond.”

Nandik Barbhaiya added:

“I am very excited to join forces with Lane and Edward at The Portfolio Platform and be part of the TPP journey. They have built a great product over last few years, and it is continuously improving. Their energy and vision around building TPP into a global brand is contagious and the perfect challenge for me to support in their growth. TPP is here and we will concur.”
