FTMO and OANDA forge strategic partnership to expand trading education in U.S. — OANDA teams with FTMO on education

FTMO, a global leader in trader development, has entered into a strategic partnership with OANDA to launch a new suite of educational and simulated trading services for U.S. residents. The collaboration gives American traders access to FTMO’s renowned learning platform, developed from more than a decade of experience, along with products tailored specifically for the U.S. market.

Through the program, traders participating in FTMO courses will be able to access an FTMO Rewards Account, which allows them to practice strategies using virtual capital. Successful participants can earn rewards, creating a bridge between training and real-world application while minimizing financial risk. The initiative emphasizes discipline, skill-building, and risk management, equipping aspiring traders with tools previously unavailable at this scale in the U.S.

This partnership is separate from FTMO Group’s acquisition of OANDA Global Corporation from CVC Asia Fund IV, which remains pending regulatory approval.

Expanding educational access

Since its founding in 2015, FTMO has provided more than four million individuals with the opportunity to refine their trading skills in a structured environment without risking personal funds. By entering the U.S. market, the company aims to replicate its global success and offer American users the same advanced resources that have made it a leader in proprietary trading and trader education.

Founded in 1996, OANDA brings decades of experience in multi-asset trading and market data services. With offices in major financial centers including New York, Toronto, London, Singapore, and Tokyo, OANDA offers a reliable platform and infrastructure to support both clients and partners.

Shared mission

FTMO co-founders Otakar Šuffner and Marek Vašíček highlighted the significance of the collaboration, calling it a key step in globalizing their offering:

“Together, we can bring to the U.S. market an educational system and trading tools that until now have not been available at this scale,” they said.

OANDA CEO Gavin Bambury added:

“OANDA is pleased to partner with FTMO for the U.S. launch. FTMO’s market-leading educational trading platform, combined with OANDA’s expertise in trading technology infrastructure, creates a dynamic proposition for the U.S. market.”

Together, the two firms aim to create a transformative experience for U.S. investors by blending financial education with innovative trading technology.
