Axon Markets taps Panagiotis Karamanis as Head of Asia for regional push. Friday, 23/10/2026 | 00:50 GMT-7 by Adonis Adoni * He brings extensive client acquisition experience following his recent stint as Country Manager for Thailand at EC Markets. * The strategic hire aims to navigate a booming Southeast retail sector facing margin compression, rising operating expenses, and increased compliance costs. Axon Markets has appointed Panagiotis Karamanis as its new Head of Asia, tasking the business development veteran to scale the offshore CFD broker's footprint across the critical APAC region. Karamanis transitions to Axon Markets following a recent stint as Country Manager for Thailand at EC Markets, and brings solid pedigree in client acquisition, having previously held senior roles at FXGT and Squared Financial. "My focus will be on expanding our business across the region, strengthening partner relationships and building our regional presence to support sustainable growth," Karamanis noted regarding his appointment. Operated by Axon Markets Ltd, the broker is regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) of Seychelles. A growing market but with a catch. Southeast Asia's retail brokerage market is expanding as brokers seek access to a growing investor base. Indonesia's retail investor population has risen sharply to more than 20 million, while Thailand remains an important regional market, with nearly half of local traders using trading apps as their primary channel. Yet growth is not costless: brokers face margin compression, rising operating costs and increasing acquisition and compliance expenses. Against this background, locally embedded executives and partner networks, particularly introducing brokers and affiliates, remain central to client acquisition across much of the region.

DB Investing to open Mexico office as more CFD brokers target LATAM. Monday, 30/03/2026 | 09:04 GMT-7 by Jared Kirui * EC Markets opened a Mexico City office late last year. * The region's light CFD rules and strong demand attract brokers. UAE-based forex and CFD broker DB Investing has announced plans to open a new office in Mexico as part of its expansion into Latin America. The new branch will serve as the company's regional hub for the growing market. The region has been attracting notable names in the brokerage space, including EC Markets. DB Investing said on Monday that it has been preparing for the move over the past months and is now ready to begin operations in the region. "A new office. A new chapter," the company wrote in the update, highlighting its intention to engage more directly with local traders and strengthen its regional presence. Joining EC Markets, VT Markets. Mexico's developing financial market and increasing participation in online trading have attracted growing interest from global brokers. For instance, EC Markets opened its first Latin American office in Mexico City in August last year, positioning the location as a hub to serve regional forex and CFD traders with a local Spanish-speaking team. In December last year, VT Markets also inaugurated a new office in Mexico City as part of its Latin America expansion strategy, describing the move as a key step in growing its presence across the region. Mexico attracts CFD brokers because it combines strong demand growth with relatively light, indirect local rules on CFDs. On regulation, Mexico supervises financial markets mainly through the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Valores (CNBV), the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit, and Banco de México. These bodies regulate banks, broker-dealers and derivatives markets, and issue rules that cover capital, conduct, and risk management. Light CFD rules and booming online trading. However, CFDs themselves sit in a legal grey area: they are not explicitly banned, but CNBV does not have a dedicated CFD regime and has warned that it will not protect clients dealing with unlicensed foreign brokers. This mix means many international CFD brokers can market into Mexico on a cross-border basis, or open representative offices, without facing the kind of product-specific leverage caps and marketing bans seen in parts of Europe. At the same time, brokers must still navigate general securities, derivatives and consumer-protection rules, and monitor evolving guidance from CNBV and Banco de México.
