- The results come as Exness, continues to restructure and expand its business
Exness (UK) Ltd, the UK arm of multi-regulated FX broker Exness, today unveiled its financial results for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, which were characterized by stable metrics in areas ranging from operating income to revenues.

Exness UK’s operating revenues came in at £27,649 ($35,865). However, the gross profit, before deducting the staff salaries and other administrative expenses, increased to £16,310 from -£15,585 in 2018.
Meanwhile, administrative expenses rose 13 percent year-on-year, coming in at £856,826 ($1.11 million) relative to £759,158 the year prior.
