RoboMarkets makes a strategic shift towards stocks and ETFs

09.09.2024 / 11:15

Dear clients,

RoboMarkets announces important strategic changes in its activities, including a shift in business focus towards developing products and services for the stock market and ETFs. From early 2025, high-risk and leveraged instruments like FX and CFDs will be removed and no longer available through RoboMarkets LTD and RoboMarkets Deutschland GmbH.

Why this change?

This shift is based on our internal research into the companies and analysis of supply and demand in the retail investment sector. We have identified a growing trend towards investing in exchange assets within the European market, which has driven our decision to refocus our business activities.

Vanyo Walter, Director of RoboMarkets Deutschland GmbH, commented: "RoboMarkets has strong expertise in IT, liquidity, and other aspects of brokerage, which we aim to leverage to compete effectively in the stock brokerage sector. Our proprietary platform, developed by our IT team and supported by ongoing investments in technology, is designed to benefit our clients and attract more self-directed traders and investors in Europe. Moving forward, RoboMarkets Deutschland GmbH will continuously expand its stock offerings and markets, optimise trading conditions, and maintain a stable, competitive, and attractive environment for clients. We believe the market for self-investing and trading in stocks will grow significantly in Europe, and we are committed to becoming one of the leading stockbrokers in the region."
