Admirals never stops evolving

Financially, Admirals faced challenges in 2023, with a notable decrease in revenue, marking a significant shift from its previously reported growth in 2022. In a bid to enhance its customer service and financial management offerings, Admirals unveiled a redesigned Visa Debit Card in partnership with Solaris.

Further bolstering its service capabilities, Admirals entered into a partnership with Match-Prime to enhance its multi-asset liquidity offerings. Client onboarding of European customers has recently become speedier after a partnership with regtech firm Onfido.

In addition to its Auto-Invest feature, and its recently secured CySEC registration as crypto asset services provider, Admirals has launched the AI-powered analytical Research Terminal for MT4 and MT5 in partnership with Acuity Trading.
