The UK unit of EC Markets almost doubled its revenue in 2025 to more than $6.3 million, up from $3.2 million the previous year. All of the revenue was generated in the UK from what the company described in its Companies House filing as “management services”.

“The company’s principal activity during the period continued to be that of an execution only brokerage for CFD’s and rolling spot forex, authorised and regulated by the FCA,” the UK-registered entity of the group noted in its filing.

“Additionally, the Company performed risk management services for an affiliated regulated broker for a fixed monthly fee that created an unregulated income stream.”

A Profitable Year

After administrative expenses, the UK company’s operating profit came in at over $1 million, up from $614,622 the previous year. Net profit for the year was $986,885.

One reason for the company’s rising administrative costs was its headcount: the broker ended the year with 18 staff, compared with 11 the previous year.

Global Volume Is Skyrocketing

EC Markets operates globally. Apart from its FCA licence, it also holds regulatory authorisation in Australia, South Africa, Mauritius, Seychelles and the UAE.

Finance Magnates earlier reported that EC Markets recorded the highest average monthly trading volume of any broker in the second quarter of 2026, at $2.11 trillion.

Set up in 2012, the global broker said its total trading volume reached $6.34 trillion for the quarter, up 23.6% from the previous three months, with about 322,000 active traders. Those figures are the company’s own and have not been independently audited.
