XTB investment platform expansion and updates

Overview

The investment platform XTB is undergoing a strategic transition from a traditional online broker to a comprehensive application focused on long-term wealth management and automation.

In the Czech Republic, the company reported a 20 percent year-on-year increase in new investors aged 18 to 26, with Generation Z representing over a quarter of all new clients. To attract these users, XTB introduced a promotional 5 percent annual welcome interest rate on uninvested funds for a limited period in late 2026.

In the UAE, XTB has upgraded its flagship Investment Plans within its application. These updates include ready-made risk-based allocations, sector-focused plans, and a DIY tool for custom portfolio construction. The new features allow for the inclusion of individual stocks alongside exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and feature a refreshed user interface designed to provide clearer insights into portfolio composition.
