Retail traders are becoming more sophisticated, more global and increasingly active across multiple asset classes, but their expectations are also becoming less forgiving. In this interview, CMC Markets (LON:CMCX) Global Head of Retail Benjamin Charbonneau explains how the group is responding through simpler platform design, third-party integrations, broader product access and a global onboarding strategy centred on Bermuda.
