Peter Cruddas

Executive Chairman


A pioneer in online trading

In 1989, Peter founded CMC Markets and has spent the last 20 years building the company into a global business with 15 overseas offices. Since then CMC Markets has grown into a true pioneer of online trading offering charting and real time execution on over 3,000 financial products.

Peter’s vision continues with the launch of our next generation trading platform.

“I think this is the best trading platform we have ever built and the best in the market today.”

Peter is passionate about the industry and his commitment to innovation and technology continues.

“I hope you love our new platform as much as I do. Please let me know your feedback by sending me your comments to peter.cruddas@cmcmarkets.com. Enjoy!”
