Sky Links Capital Grows amid global expansion strategy, establishing DIFC holding to target emerging and established financial markets.Aa forex and CFDs brokerage founded by an ex-BDSwiss executive, has officially set up its parent entity, Sky Links Holding Ltd, in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
According to a press release, the establishment of the holding company is part of a broader strategy by Sky Links Capital to tap into both emerging and mature markets across the globe.
“As a multi-jurisdictional broker, centralising our structure under the DIFC enhances our governance, credibility, and capacity to scale across global markets with transparency and trust,” commented Daniel Takieddine, Co-Founder and Group CEO of Sky Links Capital, pointing to the firm’s “long-term vision.”
Sky Links Capital earlier this year received a Category 5 licence from the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA), marking a significant milestone in its Middle East expansion and entry into a regulated financial ecosystem.
Takieddine, who previously served as CEO of BDSwiss for the MENA region, launched Sky Links Capital in mid-2024. Under his previous leadership, BDSwiss also obtained the same UAE regulatory licence in June 2024.
This UAE authorisation adds to Sky Links Capital’s growing regulatory footprint. As indicated on its website, the broker already has a licensed entity in Mauritius, with another registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines.
Takieddine is not alone in transitioning from BDSwiss to launching a new brokerage. Alexander Oelfke, the former CEO of BDSwiss, has also co-founded a Dubai-based CFDs broker, Tauro Markets, alongside David Dubrulle and Konstantin Oelfke. In an earlier comment, Oelfke shared that his firm is “in the process of establishing teams in the LATAM and APAC regions” and is actively pursuing further regulatory licences.
Meanwhile, BDSwiss itself is facing a period of contraction. The company reduced several senior and mid-level roles last year amid a self-described “restructuring.” Moreover, the future of its Cyprus operations remains uncertain following the suspension of its local licence.
