Zeus announces the appointment of two strategic hires in its Market Making Team

Zeus is delighted to announce the appointment of two strategic hires in its Market Making Team. Steve Asfour and James Revell both join from finnCap (now Cavendish).

Steve joins Zeus with over 20 years’ experience trading global equity markets. He has a wealth of knowledge in making markets in the small-midcap space and dealing with the retail platforms. Steve worked as a trader in New York and then returned to the UK market, working for a number of UK brokers. He joined finnCap in 2014 and was responsible for establishing the market making desk, growing it to 5 market makers and a significant player in small-midcap cap market making.

James joins Zeus with 8 years of market making experience. He has a degree in Economics and joined finnCap in 2015 where he progressed to Deputy Head of Market Making. He has strong client relationships across the small and mid-cap universe.

Stuart Andrews

Co-CEO of Zeus

The provision of liquidity in the shares of our corporate clients and other quoted companies has been a key part of Zeus’ client proposition since the acquisition of Arden. Steve and James were integral to building finnCap’s market making desk and its relationships with the City’s main retail trading platforms and dealing desks over a number of years. I am looking forward to continuing to build out Zeus’ market making operation with them.
