PRESSR: Capital.com accelerates MENA growth with expanded crypto markets and strong Q3 performance

Dubai, UAE – Capital.com, a leading global trading platform and fintech group, today announced a major expansion of its crypto offering alongside robust growth across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The company has added over 1,200 new markets bringing the total numbers of instruments it offers traders to 5000, including a significantly expanded range of crypto CFDs, reinforcing its position as one of the largest providers of digital asset instruments in the brokerage space.

This strategic expansion coincides with Capital.com reporting global Q3 trading volumes of $744 billion, with the MENA region contributing an impressive 51% of that total. Crypto trading led the surge, climbing 53.9% quarter-on-quarter worldwide and an exceptional 67% month-on-month in MENA, reflecting the region’s growing appetite for digital assets. Equities also advanced by 5.2% globally driven by sustained investor interest in AI and technology stocks, while FX and commodities experienced seasonal declines. 

MENA Growth Highlights

Capital.com continues to strengthen its presence in the region through its Dubai-based office, regulated by the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA). The company was recently recognised as one of the fastest-growing tech-enabled platforms in the Middle East for the third consecutive year by Deloitte Technology’s Fast 50 programme.

Expanded Crypto Offering

To meet increasing client demand for diversified trading strategies, Capital.com now offers over 400 crypto CFD instruments, giving traders access to a broad range of digital assets—from major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum to an expanding selection of altcoins.

“Digital assets are transforming the trading landscape globally, and MENA is at the forefront of this shift,” said Vitalii Kedyk, Head of Digital Assets, Capital.com. “By expanding our crypto markets, we’re empowering traders in the region to engage with this evolving asset class through a platform that prioritises education, transparency, and innovation.”

Tarik Chebib, CEO MENA at Capital.com, added: “The UAE and wider MENA region are experiencing robust growth in digital trading. Our Q3 numbers reflect strong momentum, particularly in crypto, which grew by more than 67% quarter-on-quarter in MENA alone. This expansion underscores our commitment to providing traders in the region with access to world-class products and technology, backed by local expertise and regulatory trust.”
