On November 1, 2026, XTB CEO Omar Arnaout said the company entered the UK market “a little late,” where established platforms are already in place. XTB therefore needs to invest a larger marketing budget and will proceed cautiously with its UK business. Meanwhile, Indonesia has become an important market for XTB’s account growth: the number of new accounts opened there each month is second only to Poland, and funded accounts in the first half of the year increased by 741.51% compared with the second half of 2025. In terms of products, XTB launched CFDs on gold, silver, palladium, oil, and natural gas in Indonesia in August.
