KNG Securities is pleased to announce that it has chosen Lisbon to be the new base for its European Union operations following the United Kingdom’s departure from the trading bloc.

We are extremely pleased to have Francisco joining us in Lisbon at this key moment in our expansion and we continue to actively add talent both in London and Lisbon to further strengthen our franchise.”, KNG Managing Partner and Head of Fixed Income, Andrea Podesta said in a statement.
