GTN Appoints Salim Sebbata As Chief Commercial Officer For Europe

GTN, the global fintech providing investment infrastructure, has appointed Salim Sebbata as Chief Commercial Officer for Europe, with a mandate to expand the company's commercial partnerships, broker relationships, and market presence across the region.
 

Sebbata brings more than 30 years of financial services experience spanning online brokerage, CFD platforms, regulatory development, and mergers and acquisitions. He joins GTN from Capital.com, where he served as Head of Corporate Development, leading acquisition strategy and overseeing new market entry across the Americas, APAC, and Africa.
 

Prior to Capital.com, Sebbata was CEO of BUX Financial Services UK and Global Managing Director for Derivatives, leading an 85-person organisation across six functions and expanding the CFD trading platform into six new European countries. Earlier career roles include senior positions at Merrill Lynch, E*TRADE, and CMC Markets across Europe, the UK, and the Middle East.
 

In his new role, Sebbata will lead GTN's commercial strategy and partner development across Europe, working with the company's product, regulatory, and technology teams to bring its API-first infrastructure to brokers, banks, asset managers, and fintechs across the continent.
 

GTN is an API-first, regulated infrastructure provider offering partners access to more than 90 markets and eight asset classes through a single integration point.

Christopher Gregory, CEO for Europe, GTN stated: 

“Salim's appointment is a significant step forward for our European business. He brings exactly the commercial depth and broker network we need to accelerate our growth across the region. Salim knows the European landscape inside out, the platforms, the partners, and the regulatory environment, and his job is to help us scale that success.”

The European fintech market is projected to grow from US$100 billion in 2026 to US$195 billion by 2031, driven in part by a younger generation of investors seeking mobile-first access to global markets.

Salim Sebbata, Chief Commercial Officer for Europe, GTN commented:

“GTN has built something genuinely differentiated — a regulated, API-first infrastructure that gives partners access to 90+ markets and 8 asset classes through a single integration point. Europe's fintech and financial services landscape is at an inflection point, with a younger generation actively saving and investing, putting firms under pressure to offer more while reducing operational complexity. As a former fintech CEO, I understand the pain points of the financial institutions and know that GTN is precisely the partner they need, and I'm excited to bring that proposition to market at scale.”
