Marcus Bacchi-Howard appointed Head of Sales at European Crypto Exchange One Trading

European crypto-asset exchange One trading has announced the appointment of Marcus Bacchi-Howard as its new Head of Sales. This move comes as the company prepares to launch the first crypto perpetual futures platform in the European Union, following its recent acquisition of an Organised Trading Facility (OTF) License from Dutch regulators.

Bacchi-Howard brings over 20 years of experience in institutional sales and client relationship management to the role. His career spans both traditional finance and the digital asset industry, with previous positions at Gemini, Binance, Bequant, and ED&F Man Capital. He began his career at Morgan Stanley, where he spent more than a decade in Prime Brokerage Client Services.

The appointment follows One Trading's recent funding round, which included investment from SC Ventures. These developments position the company to bridge the gap between traditional finance and digital assets within a regulated framework.

One Trading's new Head of Sales, Marcus Bacchi-Howard expressed his enthusiasm for the new role, saying: "One Trading's value proposition is the most exciting opportunity to shape the derivatives markets landscape across the EU.
