Acetop UK Posts 160% Jump in Trading Volumes to $12B, Driven by Record Spot Gold Prices

Acetop
Financial Limited, a London-based provider of online over-the-counter (OTC)
leveraged derivatives, reported a 160% increase in total trading volumes in
2024, propelled primarily by heightened activity in spot gold.

Acetop Reports Sharp Surge
in Trading Volumes

The company
disclosed that notional trading volumes soared to approximately $12.1 billion
in 2024, more than doubling from $4.65 billion in the prior year. According to
the annual report, the majority of this growth was attributed to significant
client interest in spot gold.

“The
majority of this volume was driven through outsourced liquidity, predominantly
matched with our institutional partners,” the company commeted in the report.

Gold was undoubtedly one of investors’ favorites in 2024, rising by nearly 30%. In 2025, it has continued its rally, almost repeating its performance in the first few months of the year by adding 25% and testing the $3,500 per ounce level.

The UK firm,
authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA ), offers
clients access to OTC leveraged derivatives including contracts for difference
(CFDs) and spread betting via the Metatrader platform. In addition to spot
gold, Acetop supports trading in foreign exchange, indices, and commodities.

Profitability Achieved

Acetop
Financial also reported notable improvements in its financial performance for
2024. Revenue and other income increased
to £923,000, up from £757,000 in 2023
, reflecting consistent growth in both
trading activities and service contracts. Most revenue was derived from service
fees (£720,000), complemented by a net gain from trading financial products
(£203,000).

“In
2024, we built upon the outstanding financial performance of the previous year,
successfully returning to profitability. Our revenue continued its upward
trajectory,” added Acetop.

The company
returned to profitability with a net profit of £234,000, reversing the prior
year’s net loss of £13,000. Administrative expenses decreased slightly, while
net assets rose to £1.85 million, up from £1.61 million a year earlier. Total
assets stood at £2.96 million.

Stable Client Base and
Outlook

Acetop’s UK
office continues to serve both domestic and international clients, with a
steady intake of new accounts in 2024. The company highlighted its ongoing
efforts to maintain a robust technology infrastructure and risk management
framework, citing these as key to meeting the needs of retail, professional,
and corporate customers.

Looking
ahead, Acetop said it is positioned to continue its trajectory of growth,
citing adaptability in responding to market changes and a commitment to
expanding its range of products.
