Lars Gottwik expressed in a heartfelt note:
It was a unique experience and great adventure growing JFD, together with my teammates, from zero to a globally renowned multi-asset broker. Our team spirit, combined with the ambition to change a whole industry for the better by becoming more transparent and client-centric, made the difference. After these ten years, I leave JFD being proud of what we achieved as a team. Yet, it is time for a new chapter in my professional career. I want to thank once more my colleagues for such an amazing experience.

New offices established by Lars around the world included the likes of Shenzhen in China, Limassol in Cyprus, Varna and Sofia in Bulgaria, Madrid in Spain, and Ludwigsburg in Germany. These offices employed over 100 professional employees and consolidated JFD’s status as a leading brokerage group.
JFD is internationally licensed and provides an array of institutional services including, institutional sales trading, designated sponsoring, transaction structuring, and IPOs to its clients. Gottwik will depart from the firm on 30th April 2021. He leaves with a solid sense of accomplishment following his 10 year stint in his leadership role.
