FNG has learned that leading global Retail FX and CFDs brokerage Capital.com is expanding its footprint in South Africa, hiring experienced industry executive Travis Robson as CEO South Africa.
Based in Johannesburg, Travis Robson was CEO Africa & Middle East for online broker Trive (formerly GKFX), before leaving the company last year. Before joining Trive in 2022, Travis worked for nine years at IG Group in both South Africa and the UAE, ending his tenure at IG as Senior Executive Officer & CEO – UAE.
Late last year Capital.com reorganized to a regional structure, with a number of regional CEOs each heading semi-autonomous business units, as the focus of the company shifted from the UK and Europe to the MENA region and in general internationally.
