Social trading opens up the market to people who are interested to experience a new investment alternative, which is growing fast in popularity. This recognition of eToro by the FCA as a UK regulated company adds a seal of confidence for investors who would like to explore the simple, engaging and exciting world of social investing.

"Getting our social investment network FCA regulated is a major milestone for eToro," said Yoni Assia, Founder and CEO of eToro. "As the innovation leader in social investing, we are pursuing a clear vision: to give our users the opportunity to invest and trade the markets in a simple and transparent way. As such we take transparency and user protection very seriously and have implemented a long list of self regulation rules to ensure everyone in our investment network is treated equally. Having the FCA stamp of approval makes it official."

eToro is in the process of opening a London office.
