Houston, TX – In the wake of the landmark $325 million acquisition of OTC Global Holdings (OTCGH) by BGC Group, visionary entrepreneur Javier Loya is setting his sights on a future fueled by innovation, community impact, and disruptive technology.
Loya, who co-founded OTCGH and steered it to become the world’s largest independent commodities brokerage, transitioned from day-to-day leadership following the deal. Now, the Houston-based executive is channeling his focus into GETCHOICE!, a fast-growing utility and telecom management company designed to help businesses nationwide cut costs and gain control through data-driven energy decisions.
“After nearly two decades building OTCGH into a global leader, I’m energized to lead again—this time in a sector that affects nearly every business in America,” said Loya. “GETCHOICE! is more than a cost-cutting tool. It’s about giving companies the power to manage their utilities smarter, faster, and more transparently.”
Now serving as Chairman of GETCHOICE!, Loya is bringing the same market-savvy leadership and client-first mindset that defined his commodities career into the world of smart utility management—this time with a sharp eye on sustainability and tech-forward disruption.
Yet Loya’s post-acquisition ambitions aren’t limited to the boardroom.
Freed from the operational demands of OTCGH, he is doubling down on a personal mission that has long guided his work: uplifting the Hispanic community and expanding access to economic opportunity. From supporting LULAC initiatives in Houston to backing the Greater El Paso Football Showcase Foundation and empowering Latino entrepreneurs through Bienvenidos Empresarios, Loya is investing in scalable, grassroots impact.
“This next chapter gives me the freedom to reinvest not just in businesses, but in people,” Loya said. “Whether through energy, education, or entrepreneurship, I want to create platforms that drive long-term mobility for underserved communities.”
The sale of OTCGH may have closed a historic chapter in Loya’s professional life—but it has also opened a bold new one. With GETCHOICE! and a growing portfolio of philanthropic initiatives, Loya is laying the foundation for a legacy that blends business acumen with purpose-driven leadership.
