Role takes responsibility for Digital Asset Innovation

Limassol, August 15th, 2024 – Rostro Group, the parent company of Scope Markets and Scope Prime , the globally regulated group of brokers, has this morning announced the appointment of Mark Foulger as Managing Director, Digital Asset Innovation. Drawing on Mark’s decades of experience in FX sales and his entrepreneurial flair, the role focuses on the complex demands placed on a multi-asset, multi-jurisdictional brokerage when it comes to leveraging data and technology, along with principal market making in various asset classes.  

Michael Nejmi Ayres , CEO of Rostro Group, commented: 

“Mark is a powerful addition to the team, having worked in a number of market making, hedge fund, broker-dealers and technology companies over the last 20 years. As our latest high-profile addition, we believe this underlines the fact that Rostro Group is a true powerhouse in the CFD, FX and investing field. The best talents in the industry want to work with us and we look forward to learning from Mark’s invaluable insights, too.” 

The new role will provide strategic planning for the digital asset class, including the construction of systematic market making and automated risk management strategies. Mark will also be using his knowledge and experience to coordinate and oversee the creation of alpha generation models across a wider range of asset classes.  

Mark Foulger as Managing Director, Digital Asset Innovation, Rostro Group added: 

"The CFD and FX trading industry is now truly a mature one and for many that seems to have dampened the demand to innovate. However, Rostro Group is a genuine exception here, as can be seen with the launch of multiple new products and investing initiatives. I am delighted to be part of the team and look forward to participating in this fast growth business which is shaping the future of investing.

Recent developments at Rostro Group have included a wide-reaching rebrand, both for the parent company as well as the recently acquired Scope Markets and Scope Prime divisions. This provides the foundations for the group’s ambitious agenda of offering financial inclusion for all. Products such as the newly released fractional unleveraged equity CFDs are typical of the innovation being seen in this space.
