Our take
CMC Markets is a global provider of online retail financial services. The company enables users to trade financial instruments through its award-winning next-generation trading platform, allowing them to access various tools such as technical analysis, price projection, and forums.
CMC Markets stands out through its business model - the company focusses on client service to maintain a high retention rate. The market confirms the success of its strategy, with a large percentage of its revenue generated by clients who have been with the company for more than 2 years. The company is also highly rated for its client satisfaction, and sets out to educate its audience through webinars, events, and online courses.
