GC Exchange Limited Reports 2025 Results

London, 1 May 2026, GC Exchange Limited, part of GCEX Group, a regulated digital prime brokerage providing institutional and professional clients, has submitted its financial results for the year ended 31 December 2025, reporting turnover of £2.77 million for the UK entity.

These results reflect a period of deliberate strategic investment across the GCEX Group, having recently acquired GlobalBlock - with the business prioritising client quality, recurring revenue growth and regulatory development. Recurring revenue streams, including white label platform fees and minimum monthly trading fees, continued to build throughout the year, providing a more predictable and resilient revenue base as the Group scales.

The company reported a pre-tax loss of £545,191, driven in part by increased investment in headcount, compliance infrastructure and marketing, as GCEX positions itself for the next phase of institutional client acquisition. The company maintained capital requirements during the period and remains on a sound financial footing. Importantly, the UK entity saw a positive revenue trend emerge in Q4 2025, which has continued into the opening months of 2026.

Group-wide momentum

While GC Exchange Limited represents the Group's FCA-regulated UK entity, the broader GCEX Group made significant progress across its global operations during 2025. The Group's Dubai and Copenhagen entities contributed to overall growth in client activity, volumes and recurring revenues during the period, with institutional demand for regulated digital asset and FX services continuing to increase across all three jurisdictions.

A landmark moment for the Group came in December 2025, when GC Exchange A/S received full authorisation as a Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) under the EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) from the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finanstilsynet). This positions GCEX as one of a small number of firms with active regulatory licences across the UK (FCA), the EU (MiCA) and Dubai (VARA), a combination that is increasingly relevant to institutional clients navigating complex cross-border compliance requirements.

Further reinforcing the Group's compliance infrastructure, GCEX has engaged Archax (FRN 855171) to approve its UK financial promotions under section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. This approval broadens the Group's ability to communicate with prospective UK clients in a fully compliant manner, supporting its ambitions in the market.

Lars Holst, Founder and CEO of GCEX Group, said: "The 2025 results for our UK entity reflect a year in which we invested deliberately and carefully in the foundations for long-term growth. Across the Group, we saw continued momentum in recurring revenues, strong client interest across our regulated jurisdictions and a positive trajectory heading into 2026. After, the acquisition of GlobalBlock, GCEX secured MiCA authorisation in Denmark and strengthened our UK financial promotions capability for the clients we serve. For us, regulation is part of the foundation of a sustainable institutional business. Our regulatory footprint, governance and compliance infrastructure support the trust and transparency clients expect when choosing a prime brokerage partner.”

The Group continues to invest in its XplorDigital technology suite, including XplorSpot, XplorTrader and its white label solutions, Broker in a Box and Crypto in a Box, which are designed to help brokers and institutional clients access regulated digital asset and FX markets without building infrastructure from scratch. These technology offerings have contributed to the growth in recurring platform fees during the period.

Looking ahead, GCEX Group remains focused on deepening client relationships across its three regulated jurisdictions, expanding its institutional client base and continuing to develop its technology and liquidity proposition.

Headquartered in London, with multiple offices across the globe, GCEX is regulated by the UK’s FCA, is authorised and regulated by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finanstilsynet) as a Crypto-Asset Service Provider under the EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) and as a Currency Exchange and has a Virtual Asset Service Provider license by the Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority. True Global Ventures are investors in GCEX.
