optimised the liquidity for our clients and make/take relationships within the
institutional agency business,” Wood wrote about his role at iS Prime on his
LinkedIn profile. “Over the past 12 months, traded volumes and revenues have
risen by 200%.”

he served as
a Senior Associate for Professional Development Programme between 2016 and 2018. He would later work as the Officer for FX Connect Trade and Application
Solutions at GlobalLink, State Street’s suite of electronic trading
platforms.
