Plus500 extends partnership with Atlético de Madrid as Main Sponsor

 

Plus500, a leading technology platform for trading Contracts for Difference
('CFDs') internationally, is pleased to announce that it has extended its
Official Main Sponsorship agreement with Club Atlético de Madrid, for the
2021/2022 season.

 

Having been the Official Main Sponsor of Atlético de Madrid since June
2015, Plus500 will continue to enjoy a range of sponsorship and branding
rights, including having the Company's logo featured on the official jersey of
the first team.

 

Atlético de Madrid is one of the most successful clubs in Europe over the
last decade, having won the UEFA Super Cup in 2010, 2012 and 2018, the UEFA
Europa League in 2009/10, 2011/12 and 2017/18 and qualified for the UEFA
Champions League finals in 2013/14 and 2015/16. Last season, the successful
Spanish club finished in La Liga's top three for the eighth season in a row
and qualified for the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals.

 

This extension follows the announcements of Plus500's new partnerships with
other leading European football clubs this year, including Atalanta Bergamasca
Calcio in Italy (Bergamo), BSC Young Boys Football Club in Switzerland (Berne)
and Legia Warsaw in Poland, in addition to the Company's sponsorship of the
Plus500 Brumbies rugby team in Australia.

 

Plus500 has benefitted significantly from its sponsorship of successful sports
teams to date, increasing brand recognition globally, growing brand awareness
in important markets and expanding the customer base of the Company in new and
existing territories.

 

David Zruia, Chief Executive Officer of Plus500, said:

"We are thrilled to extend our longstanding partnership with Atlético Madrid,
which has been highly successful to date in supporting our international brand
recognition. In 2020, the relationship has remained stable and robust, in the
face of what has been a turbulent and challenging period.  We look forward to
continuing to support the club through the 2021/22 season."

 

Miguel Ángel Gil Marín, Chief Executive Officer of Atlético Madrid,
added:

"We are really keen with our Plus500 main sponsorship extension to through the
2021/22. After five seasons together, we have built a true partnership that
has proven its strength over the last hard months. We have always felt the
passion and support of our main partner and this extension is a natural
consequence of this close work together "
