UK fintech InTick raises £2 million to expand derivatives trading platform

UK fintech startup InTick has raised £2 million in a funding round led by angel investors, accelerating its mission to enhance efficiency in listed derivatives trading [1]. The investment will support the development and expansion of its block trading platform, which aims to reduce manual processes and improve liquidity and price discovery for institutional participants [2]. The company, founded in 2023, has quickly gained traction in the financial technology sector, with its platform having been showcased at recent industry events such as the ICE Gilt and Eurex fixed income conferences [3].

The funding underscores growing demand for innovation in traditional finance, particularly in automating derivatives trading and streamlining complex processes [4]. James Goater, InTick’s CEO, emphasized that the platform is already transforming the listed derivatives block trading landscape by improving efficiency and trading outcomes for all participants [2]. The investment will also support broader technological advancements and operational scaling in the coming months [4].

Analysts have noted that the automation of derivatives trading could lead to significant shifts in liquidity management and pricing mechanisms [5]. While InTick has not provided specific projections or financial forecasts, the rapid capital raise highlights strong confidence in the company’s long-term potential and disruptive capabilities [5]. The startup has attracted attention from multiple financial news platforms, including The Tradenews, Fi-Desk, and FinanceFeeds, reflecting broad interest in its digital approach to derivatives trading [6].

Despite its focus on traditional financial instruments, InTick’s platform could serve as a model for future integration of digital solutions in global derivatives markets [7]. The company has maintained a clear distinction from digital assets and decentralized finance, emphasizing compliance with existing regulatory frameworks [1]. Its platform is designed to act as a bridge between buyers and sellers in large-volume trades, enhancing transparency and reducing friction in a traditionally opaque market [7].

The £2 million funding positions InTick for a next phase of development, with an emphasis on automation, efficiency, and accessibility [8]. As fintech continues to reshape trading infrastructure, InTick’s approach to listed derivatives could set new standards for market participants seeking more streamlined and transparent trading environments [4].
