1. You are a YouTube Influencers -
but you first started you’re career
with Timson Securities where
you are the Vice President, OM,
Treasurer and Director. When
did you and your husband start
the company? And who do you
cater too?
My husband and I - we both started Timson
Securities in 2013 where we offer online
stock trading through Timson Trade; one of
the Philippines most powerful online trading
platforms. Our platform includes providing
essential information for both investors and
traders alike with real-time market data, which
is not only easy to use and is highly accessible
to our retail clientele. It also includes giving
our clients analytical tools which helps our
investors and traders to better trades within a
globalised market.
2. You are a broker for one of Frances biggest banks; BNP Paribas.
How did that relationship start? And what relationship do you
have with the bank?
Phillip my husband was a client of BNP Paribas, and they offered a role to us, to become the main
brokers for the Philippines. We thought about the opportunity and we decided to fly to Hong Kong
to start the negotiations. Once, we agreed to the conditions and opportunities available to us - then
we decided to take it on and we are really happy with the situation.
