CMC Markets has sealed a multi-year deal to become Everton Football Club’s main shirt sponsor, marking a significant brand expansion beyond its core trading business. The agreement, announced Wednesday, places CMC’s branding on all senior men’s, women’s and under-21 team shirts, plus visibility across Everton’s stadiums and digital platforms.
The partnership aligns with CMC’s strategic push to attract long-term investors and institutional clients, not just active traders. The firm will collaborate with Everton in the Community and The People’s Learning Trust on financial literacy programs across Liverpool. CMC founder Lord Peter Cruddas explicitly tied the deal to Everton’s upcoming move to Hill Dickinson Stadium, positioning the sponsorship as part of the club’s modernization phase.
The timing follows strong financial performance for CMC, which reported twenty percent annual pre-tax profit growth last month while expanding into institutional services and technology partnerships. Everton President Andrew Middleton emphasized the deal strengthens revenue streams critical for sustainable club development.
