CMC Markets Partnership Signals Push into Stocks, ETFs, & Funds

CMC Markets has entered a partnership with Berlin-based investment infrastructure provider Upvest, marking a new step in its European expansion plans. The collaboration is to extend CMC’s offering beyond trading to include multi-currency investment options across stocks, ETFs, and mutual funds.

Moreover, through this partnership, CMC Markets will integrate Upvest’s Investment API, enabling clients to access a broader range of securities within a single platform. The new service, scheduled to go live this autumn, will allow investors to trade assets denominated in GBP, EUR, and USD without switching platforms. Germany has been selected as the first launch market, with the initiative expected to serve as a framework for expansion across other European countries.

The move also introduces a pathway for localised financial products, including pension solutions and tax-efficient investment structures tailored to specific markets. By entering the German market with an expanded offering, CMC Markets is positioning itself to appeal to a wider base of retail investors seeking diversified portfolios across regions and currencies.

Under the agreement, Upvest will handle the full infrastructure layer behind the scenes. This includes trade execution, custody, and settlement, along with back- and middle-office operations. The integration is here to deliver a streamlined digital experience, combining onboarding, real-time data, and multi-asset access in one interface.

Also, Martin Kassing, CEO and co-founder of Upvest, commented that the partnership reflects a shared ambition to scale investment services efficiently across Europe. He noted that CMC Markets required infrastructure capable of supporting its long-term expansion goals, with Upvest positioned to deliver that foundation.

Upvest currently operates in more than 20 European markets and processes over 100 million orders annually for over 30 financial institutions. Its recent $125 million funding round further strengthens its standing in the region’s investment infrastructure space, supporting partnerships such as this with CMC Markets.
