Capital.com, regulated by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), has stepped up its efforts to protect client funds in the European Union with a new private insurance policy.
The cover safeguards client accounts up to $1 million in the event of broker insolvency and supplements the €20,000 already protected under CySEC’s Investor Compensation Fund (ICF).
Extra Protection in Case of Insolvency
The announcement today (Thursday) confirmed that the policy is underwritten in US dollars by Lloyd’s of London. It took effect from 1 June 2025 for all Capital.com retail clients in the EU, as well as in Norway and Liechtenstein, which are outside the EU but part of the EEA.
The broker stated that the new policy will provide supplementary coverage for client funds that exceed the €20,000 guaranteed under Cyprus’ ICF, up to a limit of $1 million.

“We are giving our European clients added security and peace of mind,” said Christoforos Soutzis, CEO of Capital.com Europe. He added: “Europe is not only one of our fastest-growing regions, it’s also home to some of our most engaged and loyal clients.”
Last year, Capital.com restructured its top management to eliminate a single Group CEO role with a regional leadership model. Now, the broker has four regional CEOs.
Europe Is a Key Market
Viktor Prokopenya-owned Capital.com has seen rapid growth since its launch in 2016. The broker reported that client trading volume on its platform hit $656 billion in the first quarter of 2025.
European traders play a major role in its growth. Around 45 per cent of Capital.com’s Q1 2025 trading volume came from Europe, representing a 17 per cent increase from the previous quarter. The region ranked second only to the Middle East, which contributed 53 per cent of the overall volume.
The broker also added over 800,000 new user accounts during Q1 2025, though it did not disclose their regional breakdown.
Meanwhile, Prokopenya, who owns Capital.com through VP Capital, sold his stake in Currency.com—a cryptocurrency platform—to a group of investors represented by CXNEST Ltd, which took full control of the exchange earlier this year.
Although the broker is not required to publish its financials, it told FinanceMagnates.com earlier that its “revenue growth [was] in the triple-digit million range and registered accounts [were] in the millions range” in the first quarter of 2024.
