Capital.com announced today (Monday) that it has joined Innovate Finance and the London Chamber of Commerce to continue supporting the United Kingdom’s financial services ecosystem and to remain engaged with key industry bodies.
A Move by CFDs Broker to Back UK Fintech
Earlier this year, the contracts for differences (CFDs) broker joined TheCityUK and UK Finance as part of its wider effort to connect with the UK financial services sector.
“These memberships allow us to collaborate more closely with industry peers, contribute to policy discussions, and champion innovation that benefits clients and communities alike,” said Rupert Osborne, Capital.com’s CEO of UK operations, commenting on its latest affiliations.
More and more CFDs brokers are now stepping up efforts to support London’s place in the global financial markets. Recently, IG Group launched a campaign to help the city’s stock exchange. The London-listed broker urged the removal of stamp duty on investments and called for incentives to encourage backing of local businesses.
Innovate Finance is an industry body that works to speed up the growth of the UK fintech sector by supporting technology-focused companies. The London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), meanwhile, is a business group in the city that takes part in public policy discussions.
“This partnership reinforces our shared commitment to enhancing London’s position as a global business hub,” said Liz Giles, Policy and Communications Director at LCCI. “Capital.com’s expertise in fintech and digital trading complements LCCI’s ongoing efforts to support improved financial services, promote diversity and inclusion, and improve access to funding for SMEs.”
Capital.com’s Strong Growth
Viktor Prokopenya-owned Capital.com has grown rapidly since its launch in 2016. The broker reported client trading volume of $656 billion in the first quarter of 2025. While it maintains a strong presence in the UK, the Middle East has now become its leading market, bringing in 53 per cent of the total volume during the quarter.
The broker also recently introduced a $1 million private insurance cover for accounts held by its continental European clients, designed to offer added protection in the event of the firm’s insolvency. This insurance is in addition to the €20,000 provided under Cyprus’ Investor Compensation Fund (ICF).
