Stoop joined DUAL Europe in 2023, assuming the role of head of marine, which is headquartered in Benelux.

I look forward to expanding our presence in this region to effectively meet the needs of our brokers and their clients, making the most of emerging opportunities in this competitive market,” said Stoop, regarding his new position as managing director of DUAL Benelux.
