Advanced
Markets has hired Marko Jagustin as its new Chief Risk Officer (CRO), bringing
in a veteran with two decades of experience in foreign exchange trading and
risk management. The appointment comes as the institutional FX liquidity
provider looks to strengthen its risk oversight and fuel expansion plans.
Advanced Markets Hires
Jagustin as CRO
Jagustin’s
career spans major roles across the forex industry. He previously served as
Chief Trader at GAIN Capital’s Forex.com division and held the Chief Operating
Officer position at Finalto. Most recently, he ran liquidity provision
operations at Exness, one of the industry’s larger retail FX brokers.
His resume also
shows a progression through trading floors and risk departments at firms
including Alpha Capital Markets, Tradetech Group, and GFT Global Markets. The
executive spent a decade at GFT, working his way up to Chief Dealer before
moving to senior trading roles elsewhere.
“I am
thrilled to be part of a firm with such a strong reputation in institutional FX
and CFDs,” Jagustin said in a press release sent to FinanceMagnates.com.
“I look forward to working with the team to strengthen risk management and
contribute to the company’s ongoing success.”
For Advanced Markets, this marks another senior hire in recent months, following the January appointment of former TopFX executive Pelehrinis as Vice President of Institutional Sales for EMEA. In December 2024, the brokerage also strengthened its UK team by appointing Oksana Remez from Finalto as Head of Business Development.
Risk Management Focus
Drives Hiring
Advanced
Markets founder and CEO Anthony Brocco emphasized how Jagustin’s background
fits the company’s growth trajectory. The firm provides prime-of-prime services
and institutional liquidity to forex and CFD trading companies worldwide.
“We
are pleased to welcome Marko to our leadership team,” Brocco explained.
“His deep expertise and proven track record align seamlessly with our
strategic goals. We are confident he will play a key role in optimizing our
risk framework and supporting our expansion.”
The company
operates from its U.S. headquarters while serving clients across multiple
jurisdictions. Advanced Markets positions itself as a bridge between
institutional liquidity providers and smaller forex brokers who need access to
deeper markets.
Jagustin’s
appointment signals the firm’s focus on risk management as it scales
operations. His experience managing trading operations and liquidity flows at
both retail and institutional levels could prove valuable as Advanced Markets
navigates volatile currency markets.
