Company history
Libertex and Forex Club Group: a brief history
Libertex is a brand of Forex Club Group, one of the longer-running retail financial-services companies. The parent group has operated since 1997; the Libertex brand specifically was launched in 2014 as the group's flagship multi-asset CFD platform. This page covers the timeline, today's state, and what the longevity does — and doesn't — say about the broker.
Timeline
Three phases of operating history
The story breaks into three phases — the parent group's founding, the Libertex brand launch, and the expansion period that's still running. Numbered events below are the load-bearing milestones; the broader operational evolution happens in between.
Forex Club Group founded
1997The parent company that today operates Libertex is founded as a retail-forex brokerage. The group enters at a time when retail FX is still in its infancy — most retail trading runs through bank-affiliated platforms. Over the following decade and a half, the group builds out its platform, regulatory footprint, and international presence.
Libertex brand launched
2014Forex Club Group launches the Libertex brand as a modern, multi-asset CFD platform — a re-positioning aimed at retail traders who want a clean web and mobile interface rather than legacy MT4 desktop. The native Libertex platform debuts with the "multiplier" branding that's now associated with the broker. MT4 / MT5 support remains alongside the native platform.
Expansion and modernisation
2014 – presentContinuous build-out: 100+ jurisdictions served, mobile apps shipped and iterated on, crypto CFDs added as the asset class becomes mainstream, additional regulator coverage (multiple licensed entities across jurisdictions), public-facing sponsorships including in Formula 1 racing, and consistent platform updates. Active operations through the present.
