Following our own Exclusive FNG Report from last week that the leading Dubai Internet Company, Equiti Group, made some changes to the C-SUITE, including the name of a new CFO and head of risk and controller, the company issued a statement that confirms the changes as well as the addition.
Equiti Group has officially set former Plus500 Australia CFO Sean Hong, as his team’s new CFO, with former CFO Rick Fulton moving to become a main risk and controller.
In addition, Sartaj Singh (depicted above) was appointed Head of Technology (CTO) of Equiti. Sartaj first joined Equiti as a world leader of technology in 2023, having worked for seven years at the Goto Group, the largest technology team in Indonesia, where it was VP Engineering.
Sartaj added to a social media post about his new position in Equiti,
I am pleased to share that my role as head of technology in the Equiti Group is now official.
For the past two years – my first time I lived and working in Dubai – it was one of the most activating phases of my career. I had the privilege of driving a technology transformation that reforms how we operate, escalate and serve customers in all areas.
We have architecture:
-A worldwide scalable platform-as-service with built-in data details
-A hinged customer ecosystem powered by AI designed for speed and adaptability
-Exprints of events based on events in all transactions, functions and boarding
– a culture that has roots of mechanical property, speed and experimentationI am deeply grateful to our Managing Director Iskandar Najjar, our Council and every incredible member of the team across Equiti for the trust, support and cooperation throughout this journey.
A belief that has a central position in our progress: sustainable speed does not come from the fastest work – it comes from the right architecture, reliable systems and a culture that encourages experimentation.
When technology, businesses and data are aligned – and the teams build with a hackathon mentality – the transformation becomes continuous and complex.
We are quietly building on scale, durability and speed – and in the coming months, I am looking forward to sharing more than we are working on.
Always happy to connect with funding experts and fintech passionate to building high -impact technology.
