Hooker Joins Capitolis

Daryl Hooker, formerly global head of spot FX and precious metals at NEX Markets, is joining Capitolis in London as a consultant. Hooker will be responsible for product and business development and will be reporting to Gil Mandelzis, co-founder and CEO of Capitolis. Hooker spent almost 19 years at NEX and its forerunner Icap, starting in 2000 after joining from Reuters – a firm he joined after a long career in inter-dealer broking. He is also chairman of the International Ruble Settlement Forum, which was set up to help mandate the full adoption and usage of Russia’s real time gross settlement system (RTGS) for the ruble.
