Our Vision
Today, CMC is the go-to business for multi-asset, investment products and platform technology built on two core verticals:
- Platform Technology as a Service (PTAS): Institutional-grade trading platform technology and execution services to (B2B and B2B2C) through our open API and white-label solutions, deriving higher turnover and profits through scale and distribution.
- Direct to Consumer (D2C): Offering a best-in-class multi-asset trading experience, incorporating platform technology, products, educational resources, liquidity and execution services.
This two vertical approach enables us to access a broad diverse global client base spanning institutional, professional, retail traders and investors, ensuring deep liquidity and varied revenue streams.
However, the financial world is changing - and it is changing quickly. We are seeing profound shifts in how people access markets, how they invest, and what they expect from a trading platform.
That is why we have developed our third vertical: DeFi and Web 3.0 capabilities.
This third vertical builds on everything we have already achieved — it’s underpinned by the same robust infrastructure, disciplined investment, and client-first thinking. Web 3.0 is not a distant idea — it’s already reshaping the financial world. And for CMC, it’s a natural extension of what we already do best.
As we enter FY 2026, CMC stands as a well-capitalised, highly cash-generative business with the vision, technology, strategy, and leadership to deliver the next phase of growth. Our two vertical model has firmly established us as a leader in multi-asset trading and technology solutions. Now, with the introduction of our third vertical, in the form of Web 3.0 and DeFi functionality, I am positioning CMC to lead the next wave of innovation.
With my clear vision and the talented team around me, I am confident CMC will continue to cement its status as a global leader and world-class financial technology business in the years to come with me at the helm.
With all the opportunities ahead of us, I am more confident and excited than ever before.
