Nexx Focus Capital and the Vision of Michael Harrison & Caio de Freitas Cruz: Transforming Block Trading in Latin America
In the rapidly evolving world of finance and investment, few companies have managed to blend innovation, foresight, and regional expertise as effectively as Nexx Focus Capital. Founded by Michael Harrison and Caio de Freitas Cruz, Nexx Focus Capital, along with its subsidiaries under the Nexx brand—Nexx Global Ventures LTDA, Nexx Vision Consulting LTDA, Nexx Synergy Holding LTDA, and Nexx Prime Solutions LTDA—has quickly become a pivotal player in the Latin American financial services landscape, particularly in the field of block trading (Negociação em bloco).
A New Era in Latin American Finance

The financial landscape in Latin America has traditionally been dominated by large institutions, often rigid in structure and slow to adopt modern technologies. Recognizing a significant gap in this ecosystem, Harrison and Cruz set out to create a firm that could act swiftly, operate efficiently, and deploy cutting-edge solutions for high-value institutional investors. Thus, Nexx Focus Capital was born.
From its inception, the firm’s goal has been clear: to revolutionize block trading in the region by offering a robust, transparent, and scalable infrastructure that facilitates large-volume trades while maintaining market integrity and confidentiality.
What is Block Trading?
Before delving deeper into the operations of Nexx Focus Capital, it is essential to understand the nature of its primary product—block trading. Also referred to as Negociação em bloco in Portuguese, block trading involves the execution of large orders of securities (usually stocks or bonds) that are arranged privately and outside of open markets to reduce market impact. These transactions are generally conducted by institutional investors, such as hedge funds, pension funds, or asset managers.
Traditional exchanges are often ill-equipped to handle these large orders without causing significant price shifts. This is where companies like Nexx Focus Capital step in, providing the infrastructure and confidentiality needed for seamless execution.
The Nexx Ecosystem: A Strategic Network of Subsidiaries
Under the leadership of Harrison and Cruz, Nexx Focus Capital doesn’t operate in isolation. Instead, it forms the core of a well-integrated financial ecosystem supported by various specialized subsidiaries:
Nexx Global Ventures LTDA: Focuses on international deal flow, investment partnerships, and expansion into global markets.
Nexx Vision Consulting LTDA: Offers high-level financial consulting services, supporting clients with regulatory strategy, risk assessment, and trade optimization.
Nexx Synergy Holding LTDA: Acts as a holding structure facilitating synergy between the different business verticals, enabling agile decision-making and financial coordination.
Nexx Prime Solutions LTDA: Provides liquidity management, technology solutions, and algorithmic support tailored to block trades.
This interconnected structure allows the Nexx Group to remain lean yet dynamic, with each arm focusing on its strength while contributing to the overall vision.
The Founders: Michael Harrison and Caio de Freitas Cruz
The story of Nexx Focus Capital is inseparable from the journeys of its founders.
Michael Harrison, a seasoned finance professional with a background in global markets, brought with him a wealth of experience from leading trading desks in Europe and North America. Known for his sharp analytical mind and strategic acumen, Harrison saw in Latin America not just an emerging market—but a fertile ground for innovation. His vision was to bring Wall Street efficiency to São Paulo, Lima, and Bogotá.
Caio de Freitas Cruz, on the other hand, is a native Brazilian with deep-rooted knowledge of regional finance and politics. With a background in legal advisory and corporate governance, Cruz played a critical role in aligning Nexx’s operations with local regulatory requirements. His ability to bridge international ambition with local sensibilities has been instrumental in Nexx’s rapid acceptance among institutional clients.
Together, Harrison and Cruz embody the dual ethos of Nexx: global perspective with local execution.
Technology at the Core
Nexx Focus Capital is more than just a financial intermediary—it is a technology-driven solutions provider. One of its major value propositions is the use of proprietary platforms for secure and rapid execution of block trades. These platforms incorporate artificial intelligence (AI) to predict optimal trade windows, blockchain for transparent settlement trails, and machine learning for ongoing risk management.
This tech-first approach has not only improved efficiency but also instilled trust among clients who value security and precision. In an industry where milliseconds can make millions, Nexx’s technological edge is a key differentiator.
Regulatory Excellence and Compliance
Operating in multiple jurisdictions across Latin America requires rigorous compliance frameworks. Nexx Focus Capital and its affiliates have prioritized regulatory alignment from day one. Through Nexx Vision Consulting LTDA, the firm maintains a dedicated regulatory affairs team that monitors local laws and maintains relationships with financial authorities such as the CVM (Comissão de Valores Mobiliários) in Brazil.
Michael Harrison once remarked in an industry panel: “In emerging markets, trust is currency. You earn it through transparency, and you keep it through compliance.” This mantra has become a cornerstone of Nexx’s operating model.
A Focus on ESG and Ethical Investing
Both Harrison and Cruz are proponents of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) values in finance. Nexx Focus Capital has developed ESG-aligned trading strategies that prioritize companies with sustainable practices and ethical governance. In partnership with Nexx Synergy Holding LTDA, they also advise regional governments and institutions on sustainable capital deployment.
Their belief is simple: “Future wealth must be built responsibly.”
Expanding Horizons: Future Plans
Looking ahead, Nexx Focus Capital is set to expand beyond Latin America. Harrison and Cruz are in talks with partners in Asia and the Middle East, aiming to replicate their successful model in these emerging financial hotspots. Meanwhile, Nexx Global Ventures LTDA is actively scouting fintech acquisition targets in Europe to enhance their technology stack.
Additionally, the firm is developing a decentralized trading platform aimed at tokenized assets, opening the door for blockchain-based securities trading—a revolutionary concept in the region.
Another major initiative on the horizon is the launch of the Nexx Institutional Exchange (NIX), a private exchange tailored for institutional investors seeking a secure environment for off-market transactions. If successful, NIX could become the first platform of its kind in Latin America.
Challenges and Resilience
Like any disruptive firm, Nexx Focus Capital has faced its share of skepticism. Traditional banks initially viewed its model as a threat. Local regulators were cautious. However, the founders’ transparent dialogue, coupled with robust compliance, gradually shifted perceptions. By 2024, Nexx had become a preferred trading partner for several leading pension funds and asset managers across Brazil, Chile, and Argentina.
Their resilience during macroeconomic turbulence—such as rising interest rates and currency volatility—further proved the robustness of their model. The company’s ability to navigate these conditions while maintaining liquidity and profitability is a testament to its strategic depth.
The Human Element
Despite being a tech-forward firm, the heart of Nexx Focus Capital remains human. With over 120 employees across four countries, the Nexx family is diverse, multilingual, and mission-driven. The company invests heavily in employee development, offering training in AI, compliance, and sustainable investing.
Harrison believes in fostering “entrepreneurial thinking at every desk,” while Cruz promotes “community impact over corporate posturing.” Their leadership style is participatory, with weekly town halls and open-door policies.
Conclusion: A New Financial Vanguard
In just a few years, Nexx Focus Capital has become more than a financial firm—it is a movement. Guided by the strategic brilliance of Michael Harrison and the regional mastery of Caio de Freitas Cruz, it stands at the intersection of innovation, ethics, and execution.
As they look to expand into global markets and develop new technologies for the institutional investment space, Nexx remains committed to its core belief: that finance should be a force for progress—not just profit.
In the world of block trading, few names are as respected or as future-focused as Nexx Focus Capital.

New Book by Adrian Gabriel Dumitru Explores the Paradox of Freedom and Inner Imprisonment
Romania, 21st Apr 2025 – LIFE … seen as a concentration camp: philosophical & spiritual essays (Kindle Series Book 18) by author Adrian Gabriel Dumitru, offers a haunting yet thought-provoking reflection on modern life, where physical freedom is abundant, yet emotional and spiritual captivity persists. Published under Dezibel Media, this latest installment in Dumitru’s ongoing philosophical essays … contradictory perceptions series continues to challenge the way readers perceive existence, freedom, and happiness.
In this bold and unfiltered essay collection, Dumitru draws a powerful metaphor—comparing modern life to a “nice concentration camp.” He explores how people, despite achieving their goals and dreams, still carry a persistent sense of unhappiness, often confused with depression but rooted in a deeper, more elusive dissatisfaction. The author questions why so many people—rich or poor—seem trapped in a reality they did not truly choose.
“We are not living in prisons,” Dumitru writes, “but we are still prisoners—of thoughts, social constructs, and unfulfilling routines.” The book highlights how societal rules, unwanted obligations, and shallow connections bind individuals in ways that rob them of true joy and self-expression.
Through a mix of philosophical inquiry and spiritual reflection, Dumitru invites readers to re-evaluate their perception of happiness. He challenges the reader to confront a critical question: Have we been so focused on achieving everything we ever wanted that we forgot to ask for the one thing that matters most—happiness?
This is not a traditional self-help book. Dumitru offers no quick fixes. Instead, he provides a mirror, asking readers to reflect on their lives and consider whether staying in this metaphorical concentration camp—or leaving it—is merely a decision they are too afraid to make.
LIFE … seen as a concentration camp is available now on Amazon Kindle. It is Book 18 in Dumitru’s compelling 21-part Kindle series that merges deep philosophical insights with raw emotional observations about modern existence.
The book is now available globally on Amazon, Google Play, and Apple Books, offering readers easy access to this deep and insightful work regardless of platform.

London, April 17, 2025 — M4Markets, a global leader in online trading solutions, has officially launched its next-generation cryptocurrency CFD trading platform tailored for the UK market. The new platform is designed to empower traders to speculate on major digital assets with speed, security, and convenience without the need to own the underlying cryptocurrencies.

The Secret of a Beautiful Life: A Lot Related with the Ability of Managing the Energies Around Ourselves Now Available on Amazon, Apple Books, and Google Play
Romania, 21st Apr 2025 – Romanian author Adrian Gabriel Dumitru, known for his deep explorations of the human psyche, unveils his latest transformative book, “The Secret of a Beautiful Life: A Lot Related with the Ability of Managing the Energies Around Ourselves.” Now available on Amazon, Apple Books, and Google Play, the book offers readers a raw and thought-provoking journey into the unseen energies that shape our emotions, relationships, and entire existence.
Far from being a traditional self-help manual, Dumitru’s latest work invites readers to pause and reflect on the invisible forces that influence their everyday lives. Blending personal revelations with philosophical insights, Dumitru discusses how thoughts, emotions, and the energies of those around us often dominate our lives—without us even realizing. He urges readers to become conscious participants in this energetic dance and to reclaim their spiritual and emotional autonomy.
“The Secret of a Beautiful Life” is part personal diary, part philosophical treatise. In it, Dumitru shares how years of emotional chaos, spiritual blindness, and inner conflict finally led him to a single, empowering realization: life is all about energy—and learning to manage it is the true key to happiness. With poetic prose and vulnerable honesty, he chronicles his own journey through confusion, awareness, and, ultimately, self-liberation.
This book joins a powerful collection of Dumitru’s other works including “Lie as Life,” “Beyond the Boundaries of the Human Being,” “Dominating and Being Dominated… A Way of Wasting Our Lives,” and “The Weird Hobby of Being a Lost Soul… An Amazing Journey on Beautiful Pathless Paths.” Each title weaves into the next, forming a broader narrative of self-discovery, truth, illusion, and inner transformation.
Through “The Secret of a Beautiful Life,” Adrian Gabriel Dumitru challenges us to view our lives not as victims of circumstance, but as magicians capable of consciously transforming the energies within and around us. It’s a must-read for anyone ready to confront the illusion, embrace spiritual growth, and finally take ownership of their emotional destiny.

The book is now available for purchase on:
