CEO and Founder Alex Wright has worked in FX and financial services at some of the largest global brokerages for nearly 10 years. The seed idea that produced Forward FX was simple, build a brokerage that put the client journey and adding value at the centre of everything it does. As fintech and huge NYSE listed companies become more prominent in the FX and payments world Forward FX still believes that providing person, client centred service is what most SMEs want, and need. Alex has deep experience working with complex clients in the family office, wealth management, insurance and fiduciary space that need more than a platform, they need a partner.
