Yiannis Kontoyiannis has started a new role as Head of Funding at IC Markets EU. He shared the update on LinkedIn today (Monday), writing: “I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Head of Funding at IC Markets EU.”

Doo Prime Funding Head Joins IC Markets

Before joining IC Markets EU, Kontoyiannis worked at Doo Prime in Limassol, Cyprus, for about two years and five months. He began as a Senior Fund Accountant for about one year, was promoted to Funding Team Leader for seven months, and later served as Head of Funding for about one year.

In October, Finance Magnates reported that D Prime, the retail and institutional arm of Doo Group, was vacating its Limassol office. The broker said it is “realigning its operational structure to enhance efficiency and concentrate resources within key strategic regions.”

Earlier, the Cyprus-based marketing team was dismissed. The move followed Doo Group’s receipt of a Cyprus Investment Firm license, allowing it to offer derivatives across Europe.

Kontoyiannis Moves from FXPRIMUS to OneRoyal

Prior to Doo Prime, Kontoyiannis worked at OneRoyal as an Accountant for about one year and two months, handling accounting functions related to CFDs and team operations.

Earlier in his career, he worked at FXPRIMUS as an Accountant for about two years and seven months. The role was based in Cyprus.

Last year, Ben Singleton joined IC Markets as General Manager. He previously worked at Crédit Agricole CIB in Hong Kong for over 17 years, most recently as Executive Director.

IC Markets Integrates cTrader Copy Widget

Meanwhile, IC Markets has also integrated the cTrader Copy widget into its client area, allowing traders to use its copy trading service without leaving the website. The broker said the integration aims to make copy trading more accessible for new users and easier to manage for experienced traders.

Copy trading remains a significant source of trading volume for brokers. Other firms, including Vantage and eToro, have also expanded or promoted copy trading services.
