Nasdaq Nordic markets have high historical returns and list companies including Volvo, H&M, Nokia, and Novo Nordisk.
eToro also collaborates with other exchanges and allows UK/European users to trade in local currencies.
Nasdaq (Nasdaq: NDAQ) and eToro (Nasdaq: ETOR) have expanded
their partnership to provide real-time trading data for more than 210
additional stocks listed on Nasdaq’s Nordic exchanges in Stockholm, Helsinki, and Copenhagen.
eToro’s global retail clients will have complimentary
access, making it the first non-Nordic broker to offer this data. The move
builds on eToro’s existing U.S. equity data partnership with Nasdaq.
Retail Activity Rises on Nasdaq Nordic
Yossi Brandes, VP of Execution Services at eToro
“eToro has built a global investment platform
serving the needs of users from 75 countries around the world. Many retail
investors still have a strong home bias and this partnership enables us to
offer a broader range of local stocks as well as superior pricing data for our
users investing in European companies,” said Yossi Brandes, VP of Execution
Services at eToro.
Retail participation in Nasdaq Nordic markets has risen from
7.7% in 2018 to 10.6% in Q1 2025. The exchanges have delivered some of the
highest annualized real returns globally from 1966 to 2024.
Companies such as Volvo, H&M, Nokia, and Novo Nordisk
are listed on these markets, along with over 460 firms on Nasdaq Nordic’s
growth platform, First North, where retail investors accounted for 42% of
activity in Q1 2025.
eToro Offers Local Currency Trading Globally
The partnership is part of efforts by Nasdaq and eToro to
increase access to regional markets for global investors. It aligns with
Nasdaq’s provision of local market data to retail platforms and eToro’s
collaborations with other exchanges, including HKEX, Deutsche Boerse, LSEG, and
ADX. Users in the UK and Europe can trade in local currencies through eToro.
The partnership adds to eToro’s sports sponsorships,
including Premiership Women’s Rugby and Premier League clubs. The company aims
to support gender equality in sports and investing through campaigns like
LoudInvesting, promoting accessible and visible investment opportunities.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
