Contrasting Financial
Performance in Consecutive Years
Switzerland-based
financial institution Dukascopy
experienced an 80% decline in profits, with a reported CHF 889,000 in the
first half of 2023. It is a significant decrease from CHF 3.9 million during
the same period in 2022, Finance
Magnates reported earlier.
This
profit slump can be attributed to a substantial drop in income from trading
activities. The report showed it fell from CHF 14.4 million to CHF 9.6 million,
marking a 33% decrease.
In
contrast, Dukascopy’s revenue from interest operations, including loans, bonds,
and money market funds, saw an impressive 800% increase, rising to CHF 686
million from CHF 76,000.
While
the company’s income from commission business and services increased slightly
by 1% to CHF 562.4 million, its operating expenses notably decreased by 74%
from CHF 4.8 million in H1 2022 to CHF 1.2 million in H1 2023. This sharp
decline in profits comes after a successful 2022, where Dukascopy recorded a
profit increase of over 200% to CHF 6.4 million.
