Market Environment

Europe

Equity trading volumes in the quarter across major exchanges saw low double-digit percentage point increases when compared to the same period a year ago, but declined slightly compared to the first quarter. Market volatility increased by mid double-digit percentage points when compared to both the same period a year ago and low double-digits compared to the first quarter. However, a substantial portion of the increase in market activity, in terms of both volume and volatility, was seen in the first half of April, with activity returning to more normal levels in May and June.

Within Fixed Income, market trading volumes increased compared to the same period a year ago but declined when compared to the first quarter.

Americas

Equity trading volumes in the U.S. increased by low double-digit percentage points when compared to the same period a year ago, and high single-digits to low double-digits when compared to the first quarter. Market volatility increased by high double-digit percentage points year-on-year and low double-digits quarter-on-quarter.

Within Fixed Income, market trading volumes increased slightly when compared to the same period a year ago, but declined slightly when compared to the first quarter. Market volatility was relatively flat both year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter.

Asia

Equity trading volumes in Asia were mixed as Hong Kong and China saw significant increases when compared to the same period a year ago, but slight declines when compared to the first quarter, while Japan saw slight increases both year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter. Market volatility increased in Hong Kong and China when compared to the same period a year ago and was relatively flat when compared to the first quarter. Japan saw an increase in volatility both year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter.

Digital Assets

Within Digital Assets, which trades across regions on a 24/7 basis, trading volumes in cryptocurrencies saw a slight increase when compared to the same period a year ago but a meaningful decline when compared to the first quarter. Volatility decreased meaningfully both year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter.

Outlook

Fixed operating expenses guidance for the year remains unchanged and is expected to be in the range of €190-210m given additional technology investments and targeted additions of subject matter experts in growth areas, partially offset by expected operational efficiency gains.

CEO Statement

Mike Kuehnel, CEO
"Flow Traders posted another strong set of results in the second quarter, delivering the fourth straight quarter of triple-digit NTI for the first time in the Company's history. In addition, the fifth triple-digit NTI quarter in the last six quarters serves as strong validation of our growth and diversification strategy. The Company was able to deliver solid results through periods of mostly below average market volatility throughout most of 2024 with strong contributions from Digital Assets. We then had strong contributions from Asia in the second half of 2024, and now from Europe and the Americas in the first half of 2025. We continue to reap the rewards of our eight-year investment into Digital Assets as it has proven to be a dependable countercyclical offset to the traditional asset classes.

The second quarter saw a sharp increase in volatility in traditional asset classes, particularly in Equity, after nearly two years of relatively muted activity. While the rebound in volumes and volatility we saw in early April was not nearly as extreme and was relatively short-lived when compared to COVID, we were able to leverage the additional profits retained as part of the Trading Capital Expansion Plan. We were able to capture the opportunities that arose and record one of the best months ever in the Company's history. The return of market activity on the back of continued record ETP fund inflows around the world drove improved performance across all regions, particularly in the Americas and Asia. We are especially excited about the significant opportunity in China, where trading volumes have doubled vs. a year ago and is now two-to-three times the volumes seen in Europe.

In Digital Assets, trading volumes declined quarter-on-quarter as traditional asset classes garnered more attention given the tariff news headlines. Nevertheless, we continue to see positive sentiment shifts as institutional interests grow amidst a more conducive regulatory environment. The ecosystem around digital assets continues to expand, as evidenced by a raft of digital asset-related IPOs. We are particularly excited about the regulatory approval of AllUnity, our partnership with DWS and Galaxy Digital, which will launch a MiCAR-compliant Euro-denominated stablecoin later this year. As one of the earliest adopters of digital assets, Flow Traders remains instrumental in providing liquidity to this asset class and helping to expand the ecosystem.

Looking forward, I am proud of what we have achieved at Flow Traders over my tenure. The Company remains committed to enhancing its trading capabilities by strategically investing in cutting-edge technology and talent. The strong return on trading capital over the last 12 months validates the strategic decision taken last July to retain more profits to reinvest back into the business. I'm certain that the combination of improving and expanding the Company's trading capabilities and growing the trading capital base will undoubtedly accelerate the growth of Flow Traders in the years to come."

Hensoldt, Renk & Rheinmetall teuer
Rheinmetall, Renk und Hensoldt haben den Rüstungsboom der letzten Jahre dominiert, doch inzwischen sind diese Titel fundamental heillos überbewertet. KGVs jenseits der 60, KUVs über 4, und das in einem politisch fragilen Umfeld mit wackelnder Haushaltsdisziplin. Für späteinsteigende Anleger kann das teuer werden.

Doch es gibt Alternativen, die bislang unter dem Radar fliegen; solide bewertet, operativ stark und mit Nachholpotenzial.

In unserem kostenlosen Report zeigen wir dir, welche 3 Rüstungsunternehmen noch Potenzial haben und wie du von der zweiten Welle der Zeitenwende profitieren kannst, ohne sich an überhitzten Highflyer zu verbrennen.
