Worldwide Finance Awards 2025, Acquisition International | 11 Forex & Trading Education CEO of the Year 2025: James Bentley iven more than $6 trillion is traded every day internationally, this is an environment that can seem incredibly daunting for somebody looking to get stuck in. Even the most confident prospective trader will struggle without support, and that is where Financial Markets Online comes in. Having mastered an approach to get new traders started with maximum efficiency, the company helps discerning individuals taking their very first steps, showing them the ropes and ensuring they get consistent results in a notoriously volatile market. The process begins with the foundations, which traders can work through using Financial Markets Online’s introductory online course. Answering key questions and providing unique insights into the fundamentals of trading, this is the perfect starting point for anybody getting into trading. Once the basics are covered, the course goes into the more technical side, finishing with two high-profit strategies that can be used straight away. Immediately after one of Financial Markets Online’s students has completed this course, the company books them in for their first oneto-one session, during which they work alongside one of the experts here to develop a robust trading plan that works around their current job or existing lifestyle. As touched on above, this includes numerous trading styles and asset classes, ranging all the way from forex to metals and even cryptocurrency. On the back of this approach, Financial Markets Online today has more than 15,000 traders active in its community, as well as dozens of professionals based across its trading floors in both Chelsea, London, and the DMCC in Dubai. This network is incredibly broad, and the company is highly proud of the fact that it has traders who are just 19 years old through to traders with decades of experience – all united by a results-driven strategy. “We have over 30 professional traders and over 200 active traders who were clients now trading our capital on our behalf. ” Across their time receiving a trading education from Financial Markets Online, students are often blown away by the transparent nature of the team here and how insightful the experience is. This goes back to preconceptions about the industry, which have come about as a result of countless scam organisations looking to con people out of their money. Here, things are different. There is an open-door policy so that traders of all levels can meet the professionals on a live trading floor and even witness daily life as a trader. It is this approach, along with the setting of goals tailored to a client’s wishes – be it to work on Financial Markets Online’s own trading floor, to get funded, or to earn qualifications – that underpins the reasons behind the company’s success. As James himself explained: “We have won multiple awards over the years for being transparent and letting our clients’ results do the talking”, and this has fuelled the company’s recent, ongoing growth. The next milestone that Financial Markets Online is set to hit will see it celebrate a full year of trading on its UAE trading floor in Dubai. Reflecting on the impact this has had on the company and its clients, James commented: “It has been a fantastic experience with lots of growth. We are moving to a larger trading floor next month to further support our growth in the region, and we will also have an on-site classroom to pick up the frequency of our courses and the rate in which we bring our new traders onto the trading floor.” As for the rest of 2025, Financial Markets Online has various events booked both across the UK and the GCC, which are seeing it taking advantage of the opportunities in these great hubs to build new and fantastic trading talent. The future is, therefore, incredibly bright for these forex traders, who have today taught more than 100K traders globally. For his pivotal role in this success, it is our pleasure to once again recognise James Bentley.
