RoboMarkets Transitions to Institutional Brokerage for European Markets
RoboMarkets, a Forex and CFD broker, has unveiled plans to implement significant changes to its European business model by the end of 2024.
About the Transition
RoboMarkets has announced significant changes to its European business model, set to take effect by the end of 2024. The company will shift its focus towards serving stock investors and traders, discontinuing high-risk and leveraged products like Forex and CFDs by early 2025.
RoboMarkets Deutschland GmbH, based in Frankfurt and regulated by BaFin, will become the main hub for retail clients, specializing in stocks, bonds, and ETFs. Meanwhile, the Cyprus-based RoboMarkets Ltd will transition to an institutional broker, ceasing retail services.
This move aims to enhance the company’s technological offerings and better compete in the stock brokerage sector.
What Does It Mean?
Here is what it means for users.
Discontinuation of Forex and CFD Trading
If you are currently trading high-risk, leveraged products like Forex and CFDs, these instruments will no longer be available through RoboMarkets’ European entities from early 2025. Users who rely on these assets will need to either transition to other brokers or explore different financial instruments like stocks, bonds, or ETFs.
Focus on Stock Trading
Retail clients in Europe will now be served by RoboMarkets Deutschland GmbH, which will exclusively offer stocks, bonds, and ETFs. If you’re a stock trader or investor, you will likely benefit from a more specialized and optimized platform tailored to these products, with improved technology and trading conditions.
Institutional Services for Professional Traders
For institutional or professional traders, RoboMarkets Ltd in Cyprus will shift its focus solely to institutional services. Retail clients who prefer advanced, institutional-level services may no longer have access to these under RoboMarkets.
Transition to a Self-Directed Trading Focus
RoboMarkets is positioning itself to attract more self-directed traders and investors, particularly those interested in stock trading. The enhanced platform and focus on technology improvements could offer better trading tools, competitive pricing, and a more stable environment for users who are comfortable managing their own investments.
