Brokers’ Trading Volume Defies Summer Lull

The record volumes came during the summer months, when the industry usually sees a lull due to holidays worldwide. Although Hantec did not explain the reason behind the increased demand, it can be assumed that ongoing market volatility pushed the volumes higher.

Hantec is not alone in seeing record volumes during the summer months. Other brokers also confirmed similar record numbers for August and September to FinanceMagnates.com.

Hantec’s Push for Expansion beyond Retail

Recently, the broker group appointed Michael Nichols as the Chief Executive Officer of its institutional division, Hantec Prime, highlighting that he will “lead the expansion of its institutional footprint.”

FinanceMagnates.com also reported that Hantec reshuffled three senior management roles through an internal promotion and two new appointments: Norayr Djerrahian was moved from Chief Strategy Officer to Chief Commercial Officer, while Tim Hughes and Vivek Mehta were appointed Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Technology Officer, respectively.

Meanwhile, Hantec introduced round-the-clock trading for cryptocurrency CFDs. It was also one of the first CFD brokers to launch prop trading services.
