Flow Traders Targets 1 Billion Euros in Trading Revenue by 2030
On Tuesday, Flow Traders unveiled its Horizon 2030 strategic roadmap, aiming to establish itself as the leading liquidity provider in the continuous financial markets. The strategy revolves around six pillars of action and sets three major financial ambitions for 2030: a net trading revenue of over 1 billion euros, a return on capital of more than 50%, and an EBITDA margin exceeding 45%.
A Strategy Based on the Convergence of Traditional and Digital Markets
Flow Traders bases its evolution on the assumption that traditional markets and digital assets are gradually organizing into a continuous financial ecosystem. The group anticipates an acceleration in tokenization, the modernization of settlement infrastructures, and evolving expectations of institutional investors, which are reshaping the boundaries between asset classes and time zones. Based on this, the company aims to expand its core business in ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds), continue the growth of its digital assets activities, position itself in the tokenized asset market, and strengthen its quantitative trading capabilities. The roadmap also relies on a unified multi-asset distribution to consolidate relationships with institutional counterparties.
Six Pillars Organize Operational Implementation
The strategy is based on research and technology, connectivity, product, distribution, trading and execution, as well as risk and capital. Technologically, Flow Traders is building an environment capable of closing the cycle from quantitative research to automated execution more quickly. Connectivity will be standardized through a unified, low-latency infrastructure layer designed to connect traditional, digital, and blockchain markets. On the product side, the group will expand its ETF offerings (including active strategies) while enhancing its capabilities in tokenized assets. This orientation positions Flow Traders at the heart of the fastest-growing segments: the market for tokenized real assets is projected to reach $5.5 trillion in 2030. Regarding capital, Flow Traders plans to maintain its trading capital of approximately 1.1 billion euros to fund strategic growth, with a streamlined redeployment towards trading, technology, and value-creating external operations.
2026 and the First Half of 2027: A Transition Period
Flow Traders anticipates that 2026 and the first half of 2027 will be marked by a transition, with the fruits of current investments expected to take effect from the second half of 2027. Fixed operating expenses are revised to between 235 and 245 million euros in 2026, reflecting non-recurring items and an intensification of technological investments. The group has increased its trading capital by 75% since the second quarter of 2024, reaching 1.092 billion euros. This expansion is central to the strategy for sustainable profitability. The continuation of the current dividend distribution policy involves reinvesting all profits into the growth of the company.
