STARTRADER Appoints Samin Aref Zaher Head of Trading for STARprime
STARTRADER is pleased to announce the appointment of Samin Aref Zaher as Head of Trading for STARprime, the firm's new institutional brokerage business. This is another significant strategic appointment as STARTRADER builds on its international capabilities and talent pool.
Samin comes with significant industry experience, most recently as Liquidity Manager at SGX CurrencyNode. Before that, he was in senior positions at Valutrades, a London CFDs broker, where he was employed for six years, advancing from operations to Head of Dealing.
Speaking on his new position, Samin said:
“I am excited to be part of a movement that is driven by data-led pricing and execution, coupled with strong relationships as our core culture. Our ultimate goal is to maximise value for our clients and stakeholders, culminating to a positive contribution to our industry.”
Jay Mawji, CEO of STARprime, stated:
“Having Samin join us, with his aptitude, will play a significant role in influencing our mission to redefine and set new standards for liquidity provision. We’ve been on each other’s radar for some time, and I’m glad we now have the opportunity to achieve great things together.”
Samin's hire comes on the heels of a string of significant appointments at STARTRADER, including Vinícius Danze as LATAM Manager, Moe Padhani as Chief Commercial Officer, Allan Maira as Head of Operations, and Jay Mawji, formerly CEO of INFINOX, now in charge at STARprime.
As STARTRADER transitions from a top retail broker to global multi-asset trading group, STARprime is well-positioned to offer institutional-standard liquidity and execution services to professional clients globally.
