Exclusive Interviews · Sharing the Responsibility for the Industrys Future

In exclusive interviews during the expo, multiple guests emphasized that the value proposition championed by WikiEXPO – “Sparking Opportunity · Trading Safety” – reflects its long-term commitment to the security of the global trading environment and cross-border collaborative innovation, underscoring its industry responsibility.

Gustavo Antonio Montero, Founder & Chairman of Carter Capital Management, stated: “WikiFX plays the dual role of a third-party supervisor and information service provider, which is invaluable in promoting a transparent and compliant trading environment.” He noted that WikiFXs transparency mechanisms – through verifying regulatory licenses, providing risk rating scores, exposing fake or clone brokers, conducting on-site survey of global offices, and disclosing user complaints – reduce information asymmetry and fraud risk.

— For investors, the WikiFX Scoring system is helping them cut through the market noise and screen for legitimate brokers before investing capital, which is crucial for minimizing risks and avoiding direct fraud. It enables investors to focus their attention on platforms that demonstrate a firm commitment to compliance, security, and operational stability.

— For the industry, centralized and verified data allows users to conduct due diligence quickly, effectively building a global “oversight system” that incentivizes brokers to maintain high standards of governance and ethical practice.

Ashish Kumar Singh, CEO of Loyyal, commented: “Platforms like WikiEXPO play a crucial role in bridging the gap between innovation and regulation, bringing together policymakers, innovators, and investors. Fintech is evolving faster than policy can be made, and events like this create the necessary dialogue for both sides to understand each others priorities – innovation needs clarity, and regulation needs context.”

Sheikh Muhammad Noman, Founder & CEO of Pegasus Capital, expressed: “Platforms like WikiEXPO are immensely valuable as they act as a bridge between global capital and emerging opportunities, especially for regions like the GCC that are rapidly developing into global investment hubs. What platforms like WikiFX do – enhancing transparency and information reliability in the forex space – is vital because it enables both investors and institutions to make informed, risk-assessed decisions based on data, not speculation.”

Grand Debut · WikiFX Elite Committee

The Dubai Expo also witnessed the first offline appearance of the WikiFX Elite Club Committee. The inaugural committee members, comprising industry experts and opinion leaders from around the world, made their official debut on site and received honorary certificates.

Furthermore, six representatives participated in an exclusive roundtable dialogue themed “Transcending Local Market Barriers: Challenges and Opportunities in Building a Global Secure Trading Ecosystem”. They explored pathways for the forex industry to achieve transparency, compliance, and interconnection across different markets from various dimensions, including global regulatory collaboration, technology-enabled trading security, and investor education system development. Together, they advocated for building a more open, symbiotic, and trustworthy forex industry ecosystem, taking concrete steps to promote mutual recognition of cross-border compliance standards and the implementation of industry self-regulation mechanisms.

The establishment of the Elite Committee marks the WikiFX Elite Clubs evolution into one of the most influential high-end communities in the global forex field. It shoulders industry responsibility, aids in constructing a safe, transparent, and sustainable global trading environment, and strives to create a healthier, more open, and dynamic forex ecosystem!
