LCG, one of the leading online brokerage firms, has announced a four-year global partnership with world No. 3 ranked Swiss professional tennis player Stan Wawrinka.

Wawrinka's sponsorship deal takes effect from today, and he will begin promoting the LCG brand at the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, to be held at London's O2 from Sunday 13th to Sunday 20th November 2016.

Wawrinka is a three-time Grand Slam tournament winner. He has also won a gold medal for Switzerland at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing and is a 2014 Davis Cup champion.

Stan Wawrinka said: “I am overjoyed to have partnered with a globally recognised name like LCG. They have put their full confidence behind me and I'm very excited to work with them as I start this new phase of my career.”

Charles Henri Sabet, LCG CEO, says: “We are extremely pleased to have Stan Wawrinka as LCG's global brand ambassador. He is such a talented athlete and an inspirational figure whose career journey has been characterised by hard work and dedication."

He added, “LCG and Warwinka share a common passion to achieve and maintain excellence in our respective fields. His unwavering commitment to his sport, make him an ideal partner for us. He is an individual who embodies the values of our company, which is why we consider this partnership much more than just branding.”

There are many similar skills required to achieve success in our business or as a tennis player. Traders need to be focused and disciplined, but have the courage to take a risk.  Equally, they must respect the volatility of the markets. Stan must demonstrate this same discipline and commitment to training, to know his competition and prepare well. As he is a role model in tennis, we are role models for the online trading industry
