CMC Markets closes fiscal year at the upper end of expectations
Successful launch of Dynamic Portfolio Swap (DPS) in Germany
Frankfurt am Main, 08. April 2022 -- CMC Markets (www.cmcmarkets.com), a leading global provider of online trading for retail investors and platform technology solutions for institutional partners, expects earnings for the fiscal year ended March 31 to be at the upper end of expectations thanks to a strong fourth quarter. Preliminary calculations put net operating profit at £280 million, the second-best result in the company's history after the exceptional and pandemic-hit previous year. Final figures will be released on June 9.
While overall customer trading activity remained at a high level worldwide over the past twelve months, the Australian equity trading business in particular made a major contribution to this success with record results. In order to expand the business with non-leveraged financial products in Europe as well, customers will be given access to a corresponding trading platform under the name CMC Invest, initially in the UK, before the end of this quarter. In addition, CMC Markets announced on March 15 a share buyback program worth up to 30 million British pounds, which is to be completed by the end of June 2023.
"CMC Markets has had another successful year from both a strategic and financial perspective. The results reflect both the continued success of our B2B technology partnerships and our focus on both leveraged and non-leveraged financial products businesses," said Peter Cruddas, CEO of CMC Markets. "In an ever-changing business, we will continue to leverage our technology to enter new markets, particularly expanding our offering in the trading of non-leveraged products."
In Germany, CMC Markets once again demonstrated its innovative strength in the past fiscal year and has been offering its customers the Dynamic Portfolio Swap (DPS) since November 2021, a product with which leveraged synthetic positions on more than 12.000 products can be opened and closed. They are aggregated during the life of the DPS and displayed in real time as an "unrealized" net profit and loss. The net result, either profit or loss, is not actually realized until a realization event occurs. This can be initiated by the customer at any time, but occurs no later than the end of the calendar year.
Markus Kegler, Managing Director of CMC Markets Germany GmbH, draws a very positive balance after half a year: "The customers are enthusiastic and we are satisfied. Already, almost half of the German business runs through the new product. Especially the active customers, for whom a DPS can also be worthwhile from a tax point of view, have decided relatively quickly to switch or to open a second account. In addition, many new customers find their way to us because we are the only CFD broker in Germany to date to offer trading in the portfolio for private investors," said Kegler.
