House of Borse Ltd, a UK-based broker, has reported solid performance metrics of its business for the financial year 2022, ending on July 31. According to the latest Companies House filing, the company's turnover jumped by 71 percent year-over-year to £1.02 million. It is the second consecutive year that the broker witnessed a revenue rise.
Turnover of the broker was primarily generated from commissions earned from foreign exchange and other derivatives trading by its clients. In addition, the company highlighted that the higher turnover indicates a much-improved business performance post-Covid.
"The management continues to monitor the situation and [is] confident that the company is well-placed to further strengthen its position and that where required, management will take all necessary steps to further improve the firm's performance," the Companies House filing added.
