• Scalable Capital adds exchange-traded certificates and leveraged ETPs across equities, indices, commodities, and FX
  
• Certificates and warrants listed from BNP Paribas, with UniCredit and other providers available soon

Milan, 3 November 2025 – Scalable Capital, the European digital banking and investment platform with a full banking licence, has expanded its product offering in Italy to include derivatives. Derivatives give clients the full flexibility to capitalise on both rising and falling markets, as well as to amplify the moves in the market via hedging and leveraged opportunities. The new products include turbos, mini futures, warrants, and factor certificates, as well as leveraged, inverse, volatility, and commodity-linked ETPs. The expansion adds 30,000 new products, giving clients access to amplified returns on a large universe of underlying assets. The certificates and warrants are listed from BNP Paribas, with UniCredit and others available soon.

The new offering is fully integrated into the Scalable Capital app and web platform, providing listed-market transparency, exchange trading, and unified portfolio reporting, allowing for the quick, easy, and digital purchase and sale of derivatives. Users receive all derivative prices in real time alongside comprehensive detailed information on the products.

Building on the successful product offering in Germany, the expansion gives Italian investors the same level of access to a broader range of listed products. Derivative trades are executed via gettex, the electronic trading platform of the Munich Stock Exchange, and are thus subject to the rules and regulations as well as independent trade monitoring of a public stock exchange.

“The demand from experienced traders on our platform for a wider range of low-priced, tradable derivatives has been consistently high, and we’ve now delivered,” says Alessandro Saldutti, Country Manager Italy at Scalable Capital. “Our goal isn’t just to add more products, but to give informed investors the ability to fine-tune their portfolios with professional tools. We believe that when access is fair, transparent, and paired with education, people make better financial decisions,” he continues.

Derivatives are complex investment products and entail high risks. Their trading price is derived from an underlying asset, for example a share or an index, and performs depending on its price development and the structure of the respective instrument. Before a client can make their first trade in one of these products, they must first complete an appropriateness test to confirm their knowledge and experience.

Broad offering for experienced investors

The new product range enables investors to:

• Gain long and short market exposure with defined leverage, allowing access to equity, sector, commodity, or FX themes intraday or over multi-week horizons, and to implement relative-value or event-driven strategies
• Hedge concentrated positions, or adjust exposures without changing core holdings

Investors looking to trade with higher-frequency can realise significant savings on commissions by combining the new derivatives offer with Scalable Capital’s PRIME+ offer, which provides unlimited trades and savings plans for a flat fee of €4.99 per month. Clients who prefer to pay per trade can take advantage of the FREE offer, at €0.99 per trade.

In Italy, these instruments offer a distinct fiscal feature: realised losses can be offset against gains from shares, derivatives, and other instruments for up to four years, enabling more efficient risk and tax management within a regulated framework. This treatment differs from that of ETFs and mutual funds, which follow separate tax rules.

Deepening Scalable Capital’s long-term engagement in Italy

The launch of these new products follows the opening of Scalable Capital’s Milan office in July and the transition to a bank in September 2025.

This launch marks another step in Scalable Capital’s ambitious plans for Italy: the company continues to expand its local team and is preparing to establish an Italian branch to withhold tax at source for clients and to offer Italian IBANs in the future.

Beyond this, Scalable Capital has introduced several new features in recent months which reaffirm its commitment to financial education. The company is the first broker in Europe to integrate generative AI directly into its app via Insights. The service was specially developed for retail investors to answer questions about finances and investments directly where they arise. AI does not provide any investment advice.
