eToro was founded in 2007 with the vision of opening up the global markets so that anyone can trade and invest in a simple and transparent way. The eToro Group consists of the eToro platform, a multi-asset trading and investment venue, a crypto wallet and on-chain crypto exchange.

eToro is a global community of more than 20 million registered users who share their investment strategies. The platform enables users to easily buy, hold and sell assets, monitor their portfolio in real time, and transact whenever they want.

eToro provides to its users a choice of assets to invest in – from fractional shares, through to commodities, FX, ETFs and crypto – as well as a choice of how to invest. Clients can trade directly themselves, copy the investment strategy of another more experienced investor, or invest in one of eToro portfolios.

eToro acts as a bridge between the old world of investing and the new, helping investors navigate and benefit from the transition of assets to the blockchain. eToro is the only place where investors can hold traditional assets such as stocks or commodities alongside ‘new’ assets such as Bitcoin. eToro believes that in the future all assets will be tokenised, and that crypto is just the first step on this journey.

As technology has evolved, so has the eToro business. In 2018 has been created the infrastructure, in the form of a crypto wallet and on-chain crypto exchange, that supports the commitment to facilitating the evolution of tokenised assets. Leveraging blockchain technology will enable eToro to become the first truly global service provider, allowing everyone to trade, invest and save.

eToro is regulated in Europe by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission, in the UK by the Financial Conduct Authority, and in Australia by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
