Pepperstone, one of the world's leading CFD brokers, has announced the expansion of its Perpetual CFD offering as financial markets increasingly move toward continuous trading.
The rollout extends perpetual market access beyond digital assets, reflecting a broader shift underway across global finance, where investors are demanding markets that operate around the clock rather than within traditional exchange hours.
Perpetual futures have become one of the fastest-growing product categories in global markets, with annual trading volumes estimated to have exceeded US$90 trillion in 2025. At the same time, tokenised assets are projected by industry estimates to grow from approximately US$2 trillion today to as much as US$16 trillion by 2030.
Perpetual markets first emerged in digital assets, predominantly in the crypto space. Pepperstone is bringing that innovation into the regulated world, extending perpetual access across traditional asset classes.
Having launched SPCX.US-PERP, a synthetic perpetual CFD referencing SpaceX, Pepperstone is now accelerating the next phase of its rollout. Gold, Silver, Nasdaq, S&P 500, WTI and Brent Crude perpetual CFDs are among the instruments planned for launch, extending 24/7 market access across metals, indices and energy markets.
All products will be available through Pepperstone's regulated CFD framework under its regional and global regulatory licences, providing traders with access to perpetual market mechanics through familiar platforms and account structures.

Tamas Szabo, Group CEO, Pepperstone said:
"The concept of markets opening and closing at fixed hours is becoming increasingly outdated. Capital, information and risk now move continuously, and we believe perpetual markets will become a standard feature of modern finance. Our focus is on bringing that future into a regulated environment that traders already know and trust."
Chris Weston, Head of Research, Pepperstone
Chris Weston, Head of Research, Pepperstone commented:
"Major market-moving developments no longer wait for opening bells. Information is global, instantaneous and continuous, and traders increasingly want access to markets when opportunities emerge. We see that demand for continuous access becoming a defining feature of the next generation of financial markets."
Unlike perpetual futures offered on many crypto exchanges, Pepperstone's Perpetual CFDs operate entirely within its existing CFD infrastructure. Traders can access perpetual market exposure through a trading account without the need for crypto wallets, exchange collateral arrangements or separate venue onboarding.
The expansion forms part of Pepperstone's broader strategy to build products that reflect how markets are evolving and how clients increasingly want to access them.
