ACY Securities sponsors Table Tennis NSW as CFD broker bets in Australia’s youngest

Rick Steves

ACY Securities has partnered with Table Tennis New South Wales (TTNSW) for a two-year sponsorship agreement intended to highlight the Chatswood-based multi-asset CFD broker’s brand in Australia, with a focus on the southeastern state.

As part of the deal, TTNSW players will be sporting uniforms with the ACY logo during State Junior competitions and other events in a year that TTNSW celebrates the 120th anniversary of organised Table Tennis in New South Wales.

The brokerage firm has a history of supporting cultural events, sporting and community organisations not only in Australia but across the globe.

Jimmy Ye, Chief Executive Officer at ACY Securities, commented: “Through this sponsorship, we want to recognise the hard work and focus of TTNSW to promote table tennis. We believe that together (with TTNSW), we can encourage more people to take up this sport and widen its reach.

Tony Aduckiewicz, President of TTNSW, added: “I’m thrilled and honoured that we have the support of ACY. This is a big boost not only to our organisation but also for table tennis and our athletes.

“ACY have a track record of partnering with the highest levels of sporting as seen by their appointment of football legend Tim Cahill as their global brand ambassador as well as their sponsorship of the Australian Turf Club – The home of thoroughbred horse racing in NSW.”

In parallel with sports sponsorships, ACY Securities continues to enhance its multi asset brokerage by onboarding talent, such as FX veteran Andrew Taylor, who joined as Managing Director. Prior to landing at the Australian broker, he spent 15 months as General Manager at IC Markets. This was preceded by many other roles at different companies, mostly based out of Sydney.

Taylor brings nearly three decades of experience in leadership roles, the bulk of which was spent within the FX industry. This includes a total of seven years tenure at Tullett Prebon. Andrew’s career, which dates back to 1991, encompasses other senior roles including a four-year stint at GFT Markets, and as a business director at EasyForex.

Earlier in March, ACY Securities appointed Henrick Rajamountry as its newest head of marketing. Rajamountry is focused on further developing the global sales of ACY Securities’ retail and institutional business, as well as technology sales and client acquisition.

ACY Securities has also recently partnered with Capitalise.ai to allow its users to fully automate trading strategies without leaning on any technical skills, using no-code free-style English text input, and getting alerts and insights on the go.
