Saxo Bank appoints Steve Weller as CEO of the MENA Region

Saxo Bank appoints Steve Weller as CEO of the MENA Region

Saxo Bank, the leading Fintech specialist focused on multi-asset trading and investment, today announces the appointment of Steve Weller as CEO of the MENA Region.

Steve Weller will be based in Saxo Bank’s Dubai office and report directly to Damian Bunce, CCO of Saxo Bank.

In his new role, Steve will assume the overall responsibility to grow and develop the business and client base in the region by making Saxo Bank the first choice for traders, investors and wholesale clients in the region.

Steve has more than 25 years of international experience and know-how in the global foreign exchange market. Most recently, Steve was Managing Director and Global Head of Sberbank of Russia’s (CIB) foreign exchange business. Before joining Sberbank CIB he was the head of Foreign Exchange Asia-Pacific at Barclays PLC, based in Singapore and previous to this the global head of FX spot and forward trading at Lehman Brothers.

Commenting on his appointment, Damian Bunce, CCO of Saxo Bank, said:

“We are extremely pleased to welcome Steve on board as the CEO of the MENA region. Steve is a highly accomplished, resourceful and results-focused senior executive with a proven track record in consistently delivering robust and sustainable results. The MENA region is central to Saxo Bank’s strategy and we have a truly unique offering to bring to the market. We need to execute effectively on the many opportunities and I am very excited that Steve will lead these efforts.”

Steve Weller commented on the new role:

“I am truly excited to join Saxo Bank and very much look forward to helping develop our business in Dubai and the wider MENA region. With the financial industry’s attention increasingly turning to technology and digital client experience, Saxo’s reputation in fintech makes it the perfect place to operate in order to be at the forefront of these developments. “

“Saxo Bank provides uniquely broad and efficient access to global capital markets for its clients which is becoming increasingly relevant as clients seek to balance portfolios across geographies and asset classes.”

“Saxo also offers its technology to other banks and brokers, delivering “Banking-as-a-Service” and this in my view is a particularly interesting growth opportunity. The financial industry is at an inflection point as banks seek to replace inefficient infrastructure with more cutting edge technologies. It appears highly likely that partnerships around technology will grow in number and depth allowing these banks to service clients with a best in class client experience at a fraction of the cost of old legacy systems.”
