In London, the center of global institutional FX, the prime of prime brokerage sector is burgeoning this year, a particular example being ISPrime, which is now about to commence its third year since having been established in 2014 by Jonathan Brewer and Raj Sitlani.

The company, which caters exclusively to a large spectrum of institutional investors, is continuing its growth, exmplified by today’s appointment of Zeynap Ertan, who joins the firm from CFH Clearing.

FinanceFeeds spoke today to Raj Sitlani, Managing Partner at ISPrime, who explained “We are very pleased to announce that Zeynep Ertan has joined the Electronic Trading team at IS Prime. Zeynep will focus on all aspects of client coverage with a particular focus on our rapidly growing Turkish client franchise.”

“Zeynap joins IS Prime from CFH and is a welcome addition to the IS Prime business as we continue to expand our global footprint” concluded Mr. Sitlani.
