The abovementioned challenge only grows bigger due to the current period of uncertainty on a global scale, where it may seem scary to venture into the investment world at this time. On the other hand, opportunities are still abundant, but proper guidance is crucial, the new Chief Investment Strategist argues.
“I am delighted to be joining a brand with such a long-standing reputation in the brokerage industry. In the fintech environment where new brands are continuously appearing, the prospect of being part of a company that has a legacy on a global scale of more than two decades represents a unique opportunity. I very much look forward to reinforcing the global brand of Alpari through representing the company in media and events, as well as just as importantly educating clients and potential traders on financial market trends”, said Jameel Ahmad.
“We are encountering a period of prolonged uncertainty in the world that has led to a new era of financial market themes, such as the increased volatility that we have seen play out across various asset classes during recent months and this uncertainty means that it is pivotal that investors receive guidance to help make informed investment decisions.
“Timely insights behind what the latest macrofinancial issues mean for a portfolio are exactly what traders need during uncertain market conditions, and I look forward to commencing my new role immensely.”
