WIKIFX REPORT: CMC Markets mulls a break-up

CMC MARKETS | 2022-06-28 14:44

Abstract:If a strategic review were to be accepted by the board, then CMC will look radically different next year

飞书20220628-144629.jpg

Results for CMC Markets (CMC) were as volatile as one of the company‘s CFD’s after a period of calm in the markets, along with fewer people sat at home with nothing better than do than trade, combined to radically cut pre-tax profits by 74 per cent. Seasoned CMC watchers will know that such lurching movements are not uncommon for the spread-betting company, but what seems to have unsettled investors more was the news that the board is looking at breaking the company up.

There was a general sense in these results that CMC Markets has come to a crossroads in its development. Chief executive Lord Cruddas said: “The market tends to value the company at the lowest common denominator. In fact, there is a little bit of frustration that despite the addition of our Australian broking business, everything comes back to the spread bet world.” To bridge the emerging gap in the business, Lord Cruddas said that the board would look at separating CMC into two separate listed companies and reckoned the review process would last up to six months. CMC will have to consult shareholders, which in Lord Cruddas case means consulting himself on his majority holding.

The review into a break-up makes sense if CMC is serious about challenging the existing UK investment platforms in the UK with a new standalone business. From a valuation perspective, the current forward PE ratio of 12.7 times broker Peel Hunts EPS forecasts for 2021 place CMC at a definite discount to the sector. However, shareholders can only wait on the result of the strategic review.

Multi-Asset Liquidity Solution in 2026: Expand Instruments Without Fragmenting Execution

A multi-asset liquidity solution can help a broker support FX, CFDs, commodities, and indices through a more unified operating model. But adding asset classes can also create fragmented symbols, pricing, routing, margin rules, records, and client messages if controls are not designed first. This 2026 guide explains how a multi asset liquidity provider, forex CFD liquidity setup, commodity liquidity provider, and indices liquidity provider fit into a broker-owned execution service. It outlines the due-diligence questions, shared-control model, cost drivers, and 90-day implementation plan that help teams expand without making the execution chain harder to explain. The aim is not to promise deeper liquidity or better trading outcomes. It is to create evidence that a broker can supervise market access, trace order events, reconcile costs, and communicate consistently to the relevant clients when conditions are difficult.
