eToro Group Registers
Employee Share Purchase Plan with SEC
The British
Virgin Islands-incorporated eToro Group Ltd., which operates a social trading
and investment platform, submitted an S-8 registration statement dated May 20
to register shares under three employee benefit plans, including its 2025
Employee Share Purchase Plan (ESPP).
The 2025 ESPP
authorizes the issuance of 2,201,301 Class A common shares, with provisions for
potential annual increases through January 2035. Each January 1 beginning in
2026, the plan allows for additional shares equal to the lesser of 1% of
outstanding shares or a smaller number determined by the board.
“The
purpose of this Plan is to assist Eligible Employees of the Company and its
Designated Subsidiaries in acquiring a share ownership interest in the
Company,” the filing states.
eToro’s Employee Share
Purchase Plan Details
The plan
consists of two components: a Section 423 Component intended to qualify under
U.S. tax code, and a Non-Section 423 Component for international employees.
Eligible employees can contribute up to 20% of their compensation through
payroll deductions to purchase company shares at a discount.
According
to the plan documents, the purchase price will be at least 85% of the fair
market value of a share on either the enrollment date or purchase date,
whichever is lower.
The
company's Chairman and CEO Jonathan Alexander Assia signed the registration
statement along with CFO Meron Shani and other board members.
The
company's dual-class share structure grants Class B shares ten votes per share
compared to one vote for Class A shares, according to its corporate documents.
This structure allows founders and early investors to maintain control while
raising capital from public markets.
eToro Shares Rise 4.5%
During
Tuesday’s session, eToro’s share price rose by 4.5%, closing the day at $66.14,
despite modest declines in the Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 indices. The stock is
rebounding after a higher-than-expected IPO valuation triggered quick
profit-taking last week, pushing the price down to $61.40 on Monday.

In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.
