info_outlineQuinn Perrott (@QuinnPerrott) is the Co-Founder & General Manager of TRAction Fintech, a regulatory technology business.
Quinn has been a long time operator in the Retail Forex space, whether it’s running leading businesses like City Index and AxiTrader, or deciding to create a business in the niche space of regulatory technology.
What I like about Quinn is his fair assessment of where the industry is placed, and where it needs to go to improve the experience of the consumer. He has a unique perspective as a long time operator, with his knowledge helping average traders to understand the market and industry participants to better understand their business.
This chat with Quinn was a great insight into what key elements define the RegTech business, and what he learnt as a former operator in Forex. We covered numerous topics, including:
- Living in Cyprus
- His path to Forex
- Starting TRAction Fintech
- What he misses about the FX/CFD businesses
- New regulation from GFC
- How blockchain tech can impact reporting
