CMC Markets, a London-based online brokerage, has appointed Chris Cheverall as Managing Director and Head of Prime Services.
CMC Markets has appointed Chris Cheverall as its new Managing Director and Head of Prime Services.
Cheverall joins from Maybank, where he served as Head of Institutional Prime Sales (Europe) in London. His career includes senior roles at Morgan Stanley, Religare Capital Markets, Tradition, and IFX Markets.
This appointment follows CMC Markets’ strategic decision last year to relocate a significant portion of its institutional and prime services, under the CMC Connect brand, from London to Dubai.
Here is what it means for users.
With Cheverall’s background in prime sales from leading firms like Maybank and Morgan Stanley, institutional users can expect a wider range of services, including better access to financial products and more tailored trading solutions, especially in Contracts for Difference (CFDs) and other prime services.
His experience in managing institutional sales is likely to result in improved liquidity for large-scale traders, meaning faster execution of trades, better pricing, and access to deeper markets. This can benefit both institutional and retail clients through more seamless trade flows.
The combination of Cheverall’s leadership and the Dubai relocation could drive further technological enhancements. This could improve trading platform performance for both institutional and retail users, providing a smoother and more responsive trading experience.
