2025 at EC Markets: A Breakthrough Year That Reaffirmed Who We Are
Some years are remembered for what happened in the markets. Others are remembered for how businesses responded. 2025 was one of those years.
It was a year defined by shifting global dynamics, renewed volatility, and changing expectations from traders worldwide. In that environment, confidence wasn’t something to claim, it was something to earn, day after day.
At EC Markets, 2025 reinforced a simple belief: progress comes from discipline, alignment, and consistency.
What follows isn’t just a summary of milestones, it’s a reflection of how we showed up in a demanding year.
When the Market Environment Changed, So Did the Focus
The past year marked a noticeable shift in how global markets behaved. Capital moved with greater caution. Risk was reassessed. Hard assets reasserted their relevance, and volatility became less of a headline and more of a constant.
For traders, this wasn’t a year for noise or speculation. It was a year that rewarded preparation, execution, and trust in the infrastructure behind every trade.
That backdrop shaped how we operated at EC Markets, focused on reliability, adaptability, and delivering a platform that performs regardless of market conditions.
Performance You Can Measure
In a year where confidence had to be backed by action, EC Markets delivered measurable results.
Throughout 2025, our platform supported an average monthly trading volume of $1.027 trillion, placing us among the top three brokers globally by trading volume, as recognised by Finance Magnates. Our global client base grew to over 118,000 active traders, supported by a team of more than 1,500 professionals operating across 10 offices and seven regulatory jurisdictions.
These numbers are not milestones in isolation. They represent thousands of individual decisions made by traders who trusted EC Markets to execute, protect, and support their activity, every day, across every market session.
Building a Global Brokerage, the Right Way
Growth, for us, has never been about expansion alone. It’s about presence, proximity, and accountability.
In 2025, we continued to strengthen our footprint across key financial hubs, including Dubai, Limassol, London, Sydney, Malaysia, Port Louis, Mexico City, and Auckland. Each location plays a specific role in supporting our clients, partners, and regulatory obligations worldwide.
Beyond our offices, we remained active where the global trading community gathers, participating in major industry events such as The Forex Expo Dubai, iFX Asia & Limassol, and the Finance Magnates Africa & London Summit. These moments matter because they reflect our commitment to being visible, engaged, and accountable within the industry we operate in.
Partnerships That Define Us
Liverpool Football Club
One of the defining moments of 2025 was becoming an Official Partner of Liverpool Football Club.
This partnership was never about visibility alone. It was about alignment with a brand that understands performance under pressure, long-term excellence, and the importance of consistency at the highest level.
Throughout the year, the partnership came to life through meaningful experiences, from exclusive Anfield visits and signed jersey giveaways, to welcoming Liverpool FC legend Vladimír Šmicer at Forex Expo Dubai and showcasing the Premier League Trophy at global industry events.
Each moment brought our community closer to the partnership, reinforcing shared values rather than simply displaying a logo.
Beyond the Pitch
Our focus on meaningful partnerships extended beyond football.
In 2025, we renewed our collaboration with World No.1 Snooker Champion Judd Trump, continuing a relationship built on precision, focus, and professionalism. This included hosting an exclusive “Night with Judd” Q&A event in Dubai, offering our community a more personal connection to the partnership.
The year concluded with our Dubai Celebrity Golf Day, bringing together EC Markets leadership, Judd Trump, and former Liverpool FC player Jason McAteer. The event combined competition with purpose, raising funds in support of the LFC Foundation and the UK Teenage Cancer Trust.
These experiences reflected something important to us: partnerships should add value, build connection, and leave a positive impact.
Recognition Across the Industry
Consistency and execution don’t go unnoticed.
Throughout 2025, EC Markets received more than 17 international awards, including recognition for Broker of the Year, Best Trading Conditions, Best Regulated FX Broker, and Best Retail CFDs Broker.
While awards are never the objective, they serve as independent validation of the standards we hold ourselves to, particularly in areas that matter most to traders: regulation, execution quality, and overall client experience.
A Note from Our CEO
“2025 reinforced why alignment and execution matter. What we achieved wasn’t the result of one decision or one individual, it came from teams across regions working together with a shared long-term vision.
As we move into 2026, our focus remains unchanged: staying disciplined, staying compliant, and continuing to build a business our clients can trust.”
Looking Ahead
The progress made in 2025 sets the foundation for what comes next.
In 2026, we will continue to evolve our offering with expanded Copy Trading capabilities, new product enhancements, and the rollout of EC1, our integrated ecosystem for trading and long-term wealth building.
The objective remains the same: to support traders with the tools, infrastructure, and confidence they need to navigate global markets.
Closing the Year
2025 was not about doing more for the sake of it. It was about doing the right things, consistently, globally, and with intent.
To our clients, partners, and teams worldwide, thank you for being part of the EC Markets journey. We look forward to building what comes next, together.
