About eToro

Founded in 2007, this fast-execution broker initially gained recognition in the copy-trading space before diversifying its offerings to encompass a wide array of assets. With approximately 3 million accounts and over $11.3 billion in customer assets under management, this multi-asset broker stands as a formidable player in the brokerage industry.

Furthermore, eToro is exploring the possibility of a public listing, with the United States being a potential venue for its initial public offering. Despite generating the majority of its revenue in Europe, the company sees the US market as an attractive option due to its deep liquidity and widespread investor awareness.

While a previous attempt at going public through a reverse merger faltered, the company remains undeterred, considering a valuation exceeding $3.5 billion for its upcoming listing endeavour.
