After over two decades at Saxo Bank, the company’s long-running CIO, Steen Jakobsen is stepping down. The industry veteran is leaving a mark at one of the most successful brokerages in Europe. Instead of immediately taking on a new position, he elaborated that his love for the markets remains intact.
The move was announced by himself on LinkedIn and comes from one of the truly emblematic figures of the Copenhagen-headquartered brokerage. Through numerous media appearances, and the well-cherished in the industry, annual Saxo Bank Outrageous Predictions report, Jakobsen has become one of the faces of the brokerage industry in Europe.
“What I'm most proud of is the culture we fostered: respect, friendship, and yes, even some tough conversations. But through it all, we were always focused on improving ourselves and the company,” Jakobsen commented in his post.
