Entering the financial services arena in 2017, Fxview is a leading Forex and CFD brokerage centred on innovation and building a unique trading experience through technology enablement. Part of the financial and technology conglomerate Finvasia Group, Fxview has witnessed spectacular growth in recent years. But growth never happens overnight, and who is better suited to shed light on the company’s success and future than Janis Anastassiou, Fxview’s Managing Director? Prying her away from her hectic routine, today we sat down with Janis who revealed some of Fxview’s growth secrets and what lies ahead for the ambitious brokerage firm.
Could you tell us a little bit about yourself? What is the story behind your journey to Fxview?
First of all, it’s a pleasure to be here. As regards my career path, it’s always been about hard work and determination. Having held leadership roles for the past 12+ years, of which 8 years I’ve been a CEO overseeing financial intermediation operations for multiple leading financial firms in Europe and Asia Pacific, I consider myself to be a finance professional with extensive experience in the FX markets across several jurisdictions, ranging from Australia to the UK.
The ‘itch’, the ‘irresistible yearning’ that brought me to Fxview was the desire to draw upon the extensive knowledge and expertise I’ve gained in so many years of heading multi-jurisdictional organisations and apply this to further enhance a company with exponential growth potential. And from this perspective, Fxview had all the ingredients. The strong ethical values embedded in the company’s vision and mission gave me confidence about its future success, and here I am.
What is it like to be a Managing Director of a brokerage the size of Fxview?
It’s dynamic, fast-paced and rewarding. Fxview is witnessing growth like never before. Every single day, we are trying to make our clients’ experience better. My job, our job as a team, at Fxview, is to consistently push the boundaries and break our own records, month after month, quarter after quarter, year after year. Being a managing director of a growing company such as Fxview is exhilarating and I wouldn’t see myself doing anything else.
What is Fxview’s vision and mission? What sets Fxview apart from competitors, in your opinion?
At Fxview, we stand by our four core pillars and our mission and vision are always in line with these. And these pillars are: Low Cost & Transparency, Clients Always Come First, Safety of Funds, and Technology.
Our mission is to bring back ethical ways, and by that, I mean levelling the playing field for traders, empowering them through transparency, education and technology enablement. We have inherited this from our parent company, Finvasia. The Forex industry has long been populated by all sorts of players, and our main focus is to bring the ‘greenery’ back, add a fresh, client-centric approach to trading. Speaking of freshness and ethics, I would like to highlight that we’ve always been transparent with our offerings, even by offering such a low cost to trade. Our commissions are fixed at $1/100,000 across all instruments and our spreads start at 0.0 pips.
Fxview offers a wide range of trading instruments. Can you highlight some of the most popular instruments among your users, and are there any plans to expand the selection in the future?
Well, Forex is the most heavily traded market with us, and I give a lot of credit to the trading environment we offer. Being a traders’ driven brand, we understand what traders face on a daily basis. So, we make sure our clients can trade comfortably and confidently with us. As for our expansion plans, definitely, the possibilities are endless. Today’s traders are testing and trading everything around to find what suits them best, and we are aware of this fact. Some new instruments and markets are in the pipeline to be launched, and we’ll communicate the news soon. I’m not going to spoil the surprise now.
How do you envision the company’s growth and development in the coming years?
For us, business growth goes hand-in-hand with our clients’ growth. So, we will keep pushing forward until we create an optimal trading environment for our traders, where they can explore everything in one place. We aim to build an all-inclusive trading and investing environment that benefits traders and investors of all sizes, and we will stop at nothing to achieve it.
