The transactions are announced just days after the brokerage announced that a number of its senior executives acquired Plus500 Ltd shares.

  • Asaf Elimelech, CEO of Plus500 Ltd, acquired 460 shares in the brokerage at a price of £6.8200 per share and 30,000 shares at a price of £6.8370. The transactions were executed on August 14, 2019.

Revenues in the first half of 2019 amounted to $148 million, down 68% from $465.5 million registered in the first half of 2018.
