Financial services platform Marex Group announced exceptional second quarter results, reporting nearly $1 billion in first half revenue alongside a record $203 million in adjusted profit before tax.
The London listed company, which provides liquidity and market access services across energy and commodities markets, achieved revenue growth of 23 percent to $967.4 million in the first half of 2025 compared to $787.9 million in the corresponding period last year.
Chief Executive Ian Lowitt expressed satisfaction with the strong performance, noting that second quarter adjusted profit before tax reached $106 million, representing a 16 percent increase year on year. The company maintained a robust return on equity of 28 percent during the quarter while delivering a reported profit before tax margin of nearly 21 percent.
The group’s diversified business model demonstrated its resilience, with significant growth in both agency and execution services. Securities revenues increased substantially, driven by strong performance across equities, rates, credit and foreign exchange markets. The strategic expansion of Prime Services, acquired from TD Cowen in late 2023, contributed meaningfully to earnings growth.
Energy revenues climbed by $36.9 million to $180.2 million in the first half, reflecting record volumes and robust demand for environmental offerings, particularly in the United States market. The company’s large desks in oil and energy continued their expansion trajectory.
Clearing revenue rose 12 percent to $138.8 million, supported by increased market volatility and new client acquisitions. The inclusion of Aarna Capital Limited, which completed its acquisition in March, provided additional momentum to this segment.
Marex continued executing its growth strategy through strategic acquisitions, completing the purchase of Agrinvest, a Brazilian agricultural commodities business, and Hamilton Court Group to enhance foreign exchange capabilities.
The company also announced the acquisition of Winterflood Securities, a leading UK equity market maker.
