The past year has seen the resignation of multiple experts in the forex and contracts for difference (CFD) industry. Some of these veterans have left their roles in pursuit of new ventures, while others are yet to reveal their next steps.

One of the iconic figures that recently resigned is Alan F. Schwartz, the co-founder, and CEO of FXSpotStream. Schwartz said he would resign from his role at the company after working at the multi-bank forex aggregation platform for more than 11 years.

In November last year, another key resignation was that of Harshad Kale. Kale was the Chief Financial Officer at ThinkMarkets, a forex and CFDs brokerage platform headquartered in Australia. Before his resignation, Kale had worked at the company for around nine years.

In September, Chris Mills, an FX Dealer at the Bank of England, announced his departure from the UK central bank. Mills had served as an FX dealer at the bank for 18 years. At the BOE, Mills was tasked with managing the forex risk balance sheets of the bank and the UK Treasury, making him a key figure in the forex industry.
