Capital.com appears to be expanding further and is setting up local presences in Bahrain and Azerbaijan. It is looking for local Directors in both countries who would “oversee day-to-day operations.” The broker is also establishing a new branch in Germany.

It is also hiring a Head of Branch in Germany, who will be “accountable for the establishment, management, and growth of the German branch.”

Capital.com’s Aggressive Expansion Plan

The broker's presence in all three countries appears to be new, as its official list shows no physical offices there. In Europe, it has offices in Cyprus, Poland, Italy, Lithuania, and a customer service hub in Bulgaria.

"Capital.com continuously reviews its international presence as part of its long-term operating strategy," a representative of the broker told FinanceMagnates.com without confirming expansion to any of those specific markets. "We have a presence across several markets and regularly assess where regulated operations can best serve clients."

The new office openings also appear to be part of Capital.com’s broad global expansion plan. FinanceMagnates.com earlier reported that Capital.com applied for regulatory licences in South Africa, Japan, and Turkey. It was also hiring CEOs for its operations in Brazil and Chile, signalling expansion into those countries.

Although Capital.com has not publicly revealed its global expansion plans, job posts show that it is also looking to secure a licence in Singapore.

The broker is already regulated in the UK, Cyprus, Australia, the Bahamas, and the UAE. It has also received a local licence in Kenya.

It has also secured a MiCA licence in Cyprus, under which it can offer physical crypto products across Europe. Recently, another job post signalled that the broker is now seeking, or may have already secured, a payments licence on the same island.

Expansion Follows Trading Demand

Capital.com ended the first quarter of 2026 with a total trading volume of 1.27 trillion. The figure rose by 11.2 per cent from the previous quarter.

The broker did not reveal the market-wise share of its latest trading volume, but highlighted that “the Middle East accounted for a significant share of total trading volume during the quarter, with the UAE among the top three markets alongside Germany and the United Kingdom, consistent with Q4 2025 regional patterns.”

In the last three months of 2025, 52 per cent of Capital.com's trading volume came from MENA, and UAE traders alone contributed 71.7 per cent of the regional total.
