4T Markets UK posted a token profit, marking a cautious return to the black after a £17,380 loss last year.
The company’s turnover grew by 22% to £573,156 in 2025, up from £469,322 in 2024.
The UK division of 4T Markets Limited recorded a small
profit of £141 for the financial year ending 31 March 2025. The figure marks a
turnaround from the previous year’s £17,380 loss.
Revenue Growth with Thin Margins
4T Markets UK’s latest financial statements show
turnover rising 22% to £573,156 in 2025, compared with £469,322 a year earlier.
Gross profit jumped to £360,126 from £307,252.
However, administrative expenses – widened by 10% to
£359,732 from £324,747 – kept net gains almost flat, underscoring the thin
margins typical in today’s electronic FX brokerage space.
Besides that, the company’s operating profit reached
£394, compared to a £17,495 operating loss the previous year, while interest
income contributed an additional £118. The final profit after tax, though only
£141, represented a positive turnaround from the prior year.
“The shareholders have
funded 4T Markets with adequate capital to address not only the minimum regulatory capital necessary for the Firm to comply with the
FCA's requirements but also its working capital requirements, and will continue to do so to ensure that it can sustain the business until
it is profitable and can operate organically on its own resources,” the broker explained.
4T Markets positions itself as an agency intermediary
broker, allowing clients to access its electronic trading platform to execute
OTC FX transactions. This model differentiates it from principal dealers by
avoiding direct exposure to market risk.
Ownership and Governance
4T Markets Limited is wholly owned by 4T Global
(Cyprus) Ltd, a holding company registered in Cyprus. In the statement, the company mentioned that it
continues to navigate the UK’s evolving prudential framework following the
adoption of the Investment Firm Prudential Regime (IFPR) in 2022.
As a former €125,000 matched principal license holder,
the broker now operates under the MiFID Transitional Provisions (TP2) for Own
Funds, as outlined in the FCA Handbook.
The IFPR raised the company’s permanent minimum
capital requirement from £330,000 in late 2024 to £470,000 at the start of
2025, with a phased increase to £750,000 over five years.
