Scope Prime, the institutional liquidity provider and subsidiary of Rostro Financial Group, has appointed Debbie Georgiou as Institutional Business Development Manager for the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region.

Scope Prime Names Georgiou to Lead EMEA Business Development

This appointment is part of Scope Prime's strategy to expand its localized business development teams, an approach the company has previously implemented in other regions.

"As our business continues to scale, we have seen first-hand the benefit of building out an experienced, talented and localised business development team," said Lochlan White, Chief Commercial Officer of Scope Prime, in the press release sent to Finance Magnates. "This approach has already been a huge success across the Asia Pacific region, and this dedicated role for EMEA is just one part of the next phase in our wider growth story."

This appointment follows other recent regional hires by Scope Prime, including Andrew Taylor as Head of Scope Prime APAC and Kea Nonyana as Head of Scope Prime Africa.

"The growth seen by Scope Prime over the last few years has been amazing to watch," Georgiou stated. "With the company becoming a true industry powerhouse, I'm delighted to be joining and look forward to making my own contribution to driving the brand's ongoing success."

“I Don't Hire More People Than I’d Like to Oversee”

Michael Ayres, Rostro Group's CEO, recently shared insights about the company's recruitment strategy in light of their accelerated hiring activities. Speaking with Finance Magnates, Ayres emphasized a measured approach to staffing, stating, "I don't hire more people than I'd like to oversee," and noting that while recent hiring has been robust, the company doesn't plan to "keep running at this rate."

The Rostro Group operates two distinct brands: Scope Markets, which serves retail clients, and Scope Prime, its institutional liquidity division. Currently, Scope Prime employs approximately 15 dedicated staff members, contributing to Rostro's global workforce of 195 employees.

As part of its strategic growth, Rostro welcomed two key executives in January. Demetra Charalambous joined as Group Finance Director, while Sammy Christou stepped into the role of Managing Director of Systematic Market Making. These appointments represent significant additions to the company's leadership structure as it continues its carefully managed expansion.

Scope Prime operates under RS Global Ltd, a company authorized and regulated by the Financial Services Commission of Belize with registration number 000274/2.
