UK's Richest Trader Adds Billions to Wealth as XTX Results Surge
XTX Markets founder Alex Gerko is bolstering his status as Britain's richest trader, leading a recent charge of self-made finance billionaires breaking into the nation's ultra-wealthy elite.
Gerko's net worth surged to a record $13.2 billion after the London-based firm reported a jump in 2024 revenue and earnings, more than doubling his fortune over the past two years, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. He's now the world's 164th-richest person, and the third-wealthiest in the UK.
