eToro Sponsors Women’s Football Teams
eToro, a trading and investment platform, has announced sponsorship deals with several women’s football teams including Arsenal, West Ham, Crystal Palace, and Everton. The aim of these sponsorships is to tap into the rise of female investors and increase eToro’s presence in women’s sport, especially in the Women’s Super League. The Covid pandemic has led to a 33% increase in the proportion of female eToro clients. The sponsorship will provide the opportunity for the clubs to connect with the rapidly-growing retail investor community in the UK.
