Athens Greece
CAPEX.com, a retail forex and contracts for differences (CFDs) broker, has expanded its global footprint with the acquisition of the clients' book of WiredMarket, which has an extensive presence in Greece.
CAPEX.com Acquired WiredMarket's Clients
Announced today (Thursday), it is the first merger-and-acquisition deal of CAPEX.com, established as CFD Global.com in 2016 and rebranded in 2019. The deal was strategic as it will help the broker to strengthen its grip on the Greek market.
"We are delighted to announce the acquisition of WiredMarket.com's book of clients, which is in line with our growth strategy and strengthens our position in the Greek market," said the CEO and Founder of CAPEX.com, Octavian Patrascu.
"We are excited to welcome Wiredmarket.com's clients to our platform, where they will instantly benefit from a wider range of products and services, from CFDs Trading to Investing in shares, integrated analysis tools, and attractive trading conditions."

CAPEX.com Expanding Global Footprint
Based in Athens, WiredMarket was established in 1991 and offered online CFDs trading services. However, it is not clear if the Greek broker is entirely shutting down its operations or is shifting its focus in some other areas.
The acquisition came when CAPEX.com expanded its global footprint and product lines. Earlier this year, the broker launched real share dealings services for Middle East and Noth Africa (MENA) clients, thus pivoting beyond its usual CFDs offerings.
It also strengthened its MENA presence by gaining in-principle approval for a cryptocurrency license from the United Arab Emirates' regulator, Abu Dhabi Global Markets (ADGM). Moreover, the brokerage is regulated in Cyprus, South Africa, and Seychelles. The share dealings service is being offered under ADGM's Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) license obtained in 2020.
"We see consolidation in the market as a positive development, and the current macroeconomic conditions and competitive landscape are favorable for such consolidation," Patrascu added. "We are currently exploring other opportunities, and this acquisition is just the beginning of our expansion plans."
Several other brokers closed similar clients' book acquisition deals earlier this year. A prominent one is Capital.com acquiring the clients' book of OvalX (formerly ETX Capital), which has now shuttered operations. Tixee is another broker that sold its clients' book to M4Markets, Finance Magnates reported exclusively.

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.
