Exclusive: Hantec Markets CSO Tony Sharpe moves to Trade Nation
FNG Exclusive… FNG has learned that FCA licensed FX, CFDs, and spreadbetting broker Trade Nation has hired Tony Sharpe as the company’s new Chief Strategy Officer (CSO).
Tony Sharpe joins Trade Nation from rival broker Hantec Markets, where he worked since 2016. In addition to being Hantec’s CSO for the past seven years, Mr. Sharpe acted effectively as Executive Director of the UK company since last year, along with the SMF1 (i.e. Chief Executive) responsibility, after company senior executive Hayel Abu-Hamdan moved from London to the UAE to become Chief Commercial Officer for the overall Hantec group.
Trade Nation rebranded last year from Core Spreads, with the parent company rebranding from FINSA Europe Ltd to Trade Nation Financial UK Ltd, matching the new operating brand. Trade Nation and its various brands are controlled by UK entrepreneur Jasper White, who bought control of the company (then known as The Trader Management Company Limited) in 2014. Jasper White was previously CEO of sports betting concern Gambit Research. The company has been run day-to-day by CEO Stuart Lane since 2016.
