The CEO of Oval Money, Philip Adler, said:,“The rebranding of ETX to OvalX is the next stage of our transformation into a modern financial services company, moving closer to unifying the brokerage business with the Oval fintech business.
Claudio Bedino, Oval Money CMO, said, “As an Oval co-founder, I am very excited about this moment, which is a new chapter for this respected brand. After the acquisition of Oval by ETX, we believed that Oval was the perfect name under which to capture our shared values and visions for the financial markets. OvalX retains its distinctive X, bridging the past and future. An X also marks the spot where we rethink the world of trading. The new brand goes further than a visual refresh. We now add technological innovation with the strength that has characterised ETX in recent years. OvalX's transformation will guide it through a future of product developments that will benefit customers.”
