GCEX Hires Former FCA Associate as Compliance Chief

Date:

GCEX Group,
a digital asset brokerage, has added two senior hires in the UK as the company
continues expanding its operations in the country. The company has been
strengthened with a new Compliance Officer and Financial Controller. The Compliance Officer will support the further development of the FCA-regulated entity, leveraging his five years of experience working with the regulator.

Ignacio
Corral has joined GCEX as its new UK Compliance Officer. Corral is a qualified
lawyer and was previously Legal & Compliance Manager at Rede Partners and
Senior Compliance Manager at easyMoney. He also spent over five years as a
Senior Associate at the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority.

“I
wanted to work in a growing company where I can make a big impact,” said Corral.
“There’s a lot of talent here and it’s great to be joining the GCEX team.”

It’s worth emphasizing that Corral knows the UK’s compliance market inside out, as he was associated with the FCA for almost 6 years, parting ways with it in November 2021. Moreover, he is another representative from the public sector involved in regulations who has tied his future to private cryptocurrency companies.

Additionally,
Helen Man has come on board as GCEX’s Financial Controller. Man is a chartered
accountant with experience at financial institutions like Stifel, Zodia
Custody, and TP ICAP. She will manage finances across GCEX’s UK, Denmark, and
Dubai entities.

“I was
really keen to work in a fast-growth, ambitious firm, building on my experience
from the investment banking sector and the crypto world,” added Man. “I feel
strongly that there’s a great future for digital assets so GCEX ticked so many
boxes for me.”

The company
recently presented a new platform dubbed XplorSpot Lite, which allows crypto-fiat
conversions on any device through an intuitive interface.

The new
hires come during a growth period for GCEX in staff and operations. The Founder
and CEO, Lars Holst, said the company emphasizes finding the right talent and
is committed to expanding its UK business.

“Ignacio’s
appointment reinforces our commitment to growing our business in the UK. As we
continue our expansion across all regions, the complexity of our financial
operations has increased,” said Holst. “Helen’s appointment, working across all
entities, demonstrates further investment across our Group.”
