Among the doom and gloom, it’s nice to be able to report a hire rather than a fire. Voltrex, an FSA regulated broker, has hired Alan Moore as a consultant for its online foreign exchange platform. Moore was previously with State Street Bank, where he was responsible for its London FX business; he was managing director of Global Link and FX Connect, the bank’s multibank e-commerce portal. Moore will report to Graham Farrow, Voltrex’s managing director.
