eToro expands Nasdaq partnership to add 210 Nordic stocks
Nasdaq and the multi-asset trading platform eToro have expanded their collaboration to provide retail traders with real-time market data for more than 210 additional stocks traded on Nasdaq Nordic exchanges in Stockholm, Helsinki, and Copenhagen. With this move, eToro has become the first broker outside the region to offer complimentary direct access to Nasdaq Nordic data for its global client base.

- Traders earn on average 12% more per month vs other brokers.
The new initiative builds on an existing partnership between the two companies covering U.S. equity data. For eToro, it reflects a drive to localize its services while maintaining global reach. For Nasdaq, it strengthens its status as a leading provider of high-quality equity market information for retail brokerage platforms worldwide.
Growing interest in Nordic markets
Yossi Brandes, VP of Execution Services at eToro, emphasized that since its founding in 2007, the company’s mission has been to give investors from more than 75 countries the tools to access diverse markets. “Our partnership with Nasdaq is another important step in our ongoing efforts to complement our global offering with a more localized investment experience for our users. Many retail investors still prefer their home markets, and this partnership allows us to provide a broader range of local stocks along with superior pricing data for our users investing in European companies,” he said.
The expansion comes amid rising interest from retail investors in Nordic markets. According to Nasdaq, retail participation in the region’s main exchanges grew from 7.7% in 2018 to 10.6% in the first quarter of 2025. Nasdaq Nordic has also earned a reputation for delivering the highest long-term real returns globally between 1966 and 2024. Companies such as Volvo, H&M, Nokia, and Novo Nordisk are among those listed. Additionally, First North, a market designed for growth companies, currently hosts over 460 firms, with retail investors accounting for 42% of activity in Q1 2025.
Strategy for global expansion
Brandon Tepper, Nasdaq’s Global Head of Data, noted that expanding access to real-time data is key to building a more connected and informed investor community. “Our deepening partnership with eToro reflects Nasdaq’s commitment to powering the next generation of retail investing, where transparency, local market access, differentiated data, and intelligent infrastructure converge,” he said.
The collaboration also aligns with eToro’s broader strategy of securing data and trading access from leading exchanges worldwide, including HKEX, LSEG, Deutsche Boerse, and ADX, while offering clients in the UK and Europe the ability to trade in local currencies.
