The number of real money transactions is at a record level.

At the same time, the trading volume in the current fourth quarter has already exceeded EUR 25 billion (Q3 2020: EUR 33 billion) and will therefore also reach a record level.

NAGA has found a growth formula that enables it to grow in a precise way, fully, digitally and on a global level. The market potential is promising and the industry is growing - especially due to accelerated digitization, the topic of investing is more popular than ever", summarizes the CEO Benjamin Bilski.
