London based prime-of-prime broker and liquidity solutions provider iSAM Securities has announced that Aaron Brown has joined the company in the UAE, in a strategic move to expand into the Middle East. With almost two decades of sales experience in the FX and CFDs industry, iSAM said that Aaron will support the brand in increasing its global presence moving forward.
Joining iSAM Securities after his departure from IXO Prime, where he was Head of Institutional Sales MENA, Aaron Brown brings a range of expertise to the group. He began his career working at the London Metal Exchange and then at Société Générale on the LME open outcry trading floor, before moving into the retail FX and CFDs industry in 2011. His senior institutional sales experience includes various London-based roles at some of the key players in the market, whilst his role at ADSS took his career overseas from London to Abu Dhabi to focus on the MENA region.
iSAM Securities, which provides multi-asset liquidity, cutting-edge technology, and robust risk management services, said it is poised to offer these capabilities to institutional clients in the MENA region. The company’s global presence includes offices in London, Hong Kong, the Cayman Islands, and Florida (USA), with the backing of its parent company, the $5 billion systematic hedge fund manager, iSAM.
Sam Johnson, Global Head of Business Development, iSAM Securities said,
“We are delighted to welcome Aaron Brown to the team and work with him to spearhead our growth in the region. Aaron’s wealth of experience in institutional sales, strong network and in-depth understanding of client requirements in the Middle East will help us to capitalize on recent client demand in the region, whilst delivering the same innovative, high-quality products and services we offer to all our clients globally.”
Aaron Brown added,
“Joining iSAM Securities is a great opportunity for me – the firm has a strong pedigree, ambitious growth plans and an exceptional team, many of whom I have known for a number of years. I am excited to work with the team and contribute to the global growth of the brand.”
