The Copenhagen-based group now serves 1.4 million clients worldwide, a 13% increase from the previous year. Client assets also reached an all-time high of EUR 118 billion, underscoring investor confidence in Saxo Bank’s platforms. According to the company’s report, a significant part of the growth was linked to heightened market volatility in early 2025, which led to a 28% year-on-year increase in trading volumes before activity stabilized in the second quarter.
Strategic focus and efficiency
Despite reducing its geographical footprint, Saxo Bank emphasized that its long-term strategy remains unchanged: expanding the client base while continuously improving its trading platforms, products, and services. The group has also invested in strengthening compliance, cybersecurity, and anti-money laundering measures to ensure operational resilience and client protection.
Kim Fournais, CEO and Founder of Saxo Bank, highlighted the alignment between the company’s commercial strategy and client needs:“We now have a record 1.4 million clients who trust us with EUR 118 billion in assets. It is clear that our long-term commercial strategy is aligned with client needs, and I am confident that our continuous growth is the result of our unwavering commitment to strengthening our investment platforms, products, services, and competitive pricing.”
