Hantec Prime Reports Trading Volume Up Over 300% in 2026 With 42+ Institutional Clients

Hantec Prime, the institutional division of Hantec Markets, has reported trading volume up more than 300% year-to-date, alongside the addition of 42 new institutional clients since December, capping one of its strongest years of growth to date.

The firm, which provides liquidity, execution and prime-brokerage infrastructure to brokers, funds and professional trading desks, said the growth was driven by rising flow from both new and existing clients over the course of the year.

• Trading volume: up more than 300% year-to-date

• New institutional clients: 42 added in 2026, at a pace of two to three per month since December 2025

• Execution infrastructure: designed for sub-1ms fills and 99.99% uptime

• Coverage: liquidity across 1,850+ instruments sourced from tier-1 providers

Growth Accelerated Through the Year

Trading volume rose steadily through the first quarter, at roughly 20% month on month, before accelerating through the spring, when volumes nearly doubled as clients routed larger and more frequent flow through the firm's infrastructure.

Client acquisition kept pace, with Hantec Prime onboarding two to three new institutional firms each month without interruption from December onward.

A Liquidity-and-Dealing Model

Hantec Prime attributed the momentum to its liquidity-and-dealing model, which pairs aggregated multi-source liquidity with hands-on dealing and risk expertise. Its execution infrastructure, built on LD5 connectivity, global servers, redundant architecture and FIX API integration, is designed to deliver low-latency execution and minimise slippage as client flow scales.

To mark the year, the firm will host a client gathering in Dubai on 20 September, held as a note of thanks to the clients it works with rather than a public event.

Michael Nichols, CEO, Hantec Prime

"This year's growth is a reflection of trust, every new mandate, every firm that chooses to route flow through us, is a partnership we take seriously. We couldn't have reached this point without the clients who rely on us every trading day, and this milestone is as much theirs as it is ours." - Michael Nichols, CEO, Hantec Prime

Hantec Prime will also be present at Forex Expo Dubai, 22–23 September 2026, at the Dubai World Trade Centre, where Nichols and members of the Hantec Prime team will join colleagues at the Hantec Markets booth. Institutional attendees are invited to meet the team to discuss liquidity, execution and onboarding.
