On Saturday, November 22, 2025, representatives of XTB’s Cypriot company took part in a tree-planting initiative in the village of Vouni, Cyprus, in an area affected by a summer wildfire.
The initiative was organized by a non-profit organization and brought together more than 150 volunteers, including 13 XTB employees. The activities involved planting trees in a designated area.
The aim of the initiative was to support local efforts to restore areas affected by the fire. The scale and long-term environmental effects of such activities depend on many factors, including the continued maintenance of the plantings, climatic conditions, and land management practices. The participation of XTB employees was voluntary. At this stage, the company does not publish data on the measurable environmental impact of this specific activity.

In October and November 2025, the XTB Foundation organized preventive health screenings at the Warsaw office as part of the Pink October and Movember campaigns. During the two-day initiative, 299 screening tests were performed, including ultrasound examinations of the thyroid, breasts and testicles. The screenings were available to all employees and were conducted in convenient conditions without additional formalities.
The initiative allowed employees to check their health through preventive screenings and encouraged regular monitoring of physical condition. It was particularly important to provide screenings for men, who statistically undergo preventive tests less frequently. In 2024 alone (January–October), women had breast ultrasounds 12.5 times more often than men had testicular ultrasounds. This disparity highlights the need for further education for men on preventive healthcare, especially regarding cancer.1
Additionally, in the last quarter of 2025, XTB organized flu vaccinations and first aid training, available to employees at the Warsaw office.
XTB employees also have year-round access to a co-financed medical package, which provides consultations with doctors as well as diagnostic and specialist tests at private healthcare facilities.

In October, XTB held an edition of “Security Month,” an initiative aimed at raising awareness of cybersecurity threats. The program included training sessions, presentations, and educational communications for employees, designed to strengthen security practices in everyday work.
This year’s edition was organized by XTB’s security team, with support from Security Champions—employees serving as security ambassadors within the company. This collaboration enabled the planning and execution of a variety of educational activities.
The initiative’s goal was to increase employees’ knowledge of cyber threats and to promote the adoption of security principles in daily organizational activities.
The activities included among others:
- threat simulation through the distribution of specially prepared USB flash drives,
- security riddles and puzzles to develop critical thinking,
- weekly cybersecurity quizzes,
- mandatory training to reinforce key fundamentals,
- live webinars with the opportunity to ask experts questions,
- visual materials and messages displayed in the office space,
- company-wide phishing simulation to test our vigilance.
“The world of technology is accelerating every month, but one thing remains key – an aware employee. That is why continuous education and good habits are our best shield.”
– comments Filip Dzwonek, IT Security Specialist
For us, Security Month is a part of a broader strategy to build cyber resilience. Thanks to our joint efforts, we are strengthening the security of us all.

On Sunday, September 28, 2025, employees of XTB’s Cypriot company, together with their family members and other participants, took part in a beach clean-up initiative organized by ICPAC (the Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Cyprus). The participation was initiated by Georgia Georgiou, Managing Director | Head of Finance at XTB Ltd and XTB Services Limited.
The activities took place at Governors Beach in Limassol and included collecting waste such as plastic, glass, and other municipal debris. Approximately 120 people participated in the event.
The aim of the initiative was to support local clean-up efforts. The scale and durability of the effects of such activities depend on many factors, including the frequency of similar initiatives, ongoing waste management practices, and the behavior of users of the area.
During the event, first aid training was also conducted. Participants took part in workshops on the Sustainable Development Goals and received information on waste segregation principles and basic recycling methods.
Participation by employees was voluntary. The company does not publish data on the measurable environmental impact of this specific initiative. Activities of this kind are part of employee engagement and do not constitute a standalone basis for assessing the company’s environmental impact or the achievement of its strategic objectives.
XTB’s participation in the #2h4family social campaign has become an annual practice. In May 2025, the XTB Group once again joined the initiative, allowing employees to finish work two hours earlier so they could spend more time with their families and loved ones.
The #2h4family initiative provides employees with the flexibility to organize their personal and professional lives according to their individual needs. Participation is voluntary and practical, helping employees manage their time more effectively and enjoy meaningful moments with their families.
XTB supports the campaign not only by taking part but also by promoting it across its offices. In 2025, the company was recognized by the Humanites Institute for its involvement and for spreading the idea of #2h4family among employees.
Implementation of #2h4family is part of XTB’s employee care initiatives, allowing staff to benefit from a shorter workday during the campaign. The initiative aligns with practices that support organizational flexibility and work-life balance.

On Saturday, September 6, 2025, Warsaw’s Praga district hosted the 10th edition of the Wizz Air Night Praga Half Marathon and the accompanying 5K race – Praska 5K Run. Employees of XTB S.A. and representatives of the XTB Foundation also participated in the event.
Over 100 XTB employees chose to take part in one of the two distances – the half marathon (21 km) or the 5 km run. This was the largest number of participants registered by a single company in this edition of the event.
Participants had the option to join a voluntary preparation program, which included training sessions and online meetings led by a coach. The program was designed to support employees in preparing for the race and was available to all interested staff members.
The race included both regular runners and participants taking part in this type of event for the first time. The course was organized by the event organizers and included support stations and musical entertainment along the route.
According to Tomasz Gogol, Principal Engineer at XTB, participating in the event was an opportunity for physical activity and for connecting with colleagues outside the usual work environment. He also emphasized the importance of prior training preparation.
Participation in the event was voluntary and focused on the physical activity of employees and organization representatives.
At XTB, we consistently develop solutions aimed at enhancing investment security. In response to growing cyber threats, we have implemented additional safeguards as well as educational initiatives for our clients.
According to XTB data, cybersecurity incidents affected 0.017% of clients, and in each case, two-factor authentication (2FA) was not enabled. This feature has been available since 2024, and since July 2025 also in the form of TOTP, supported by popular authentication applications.
Clients who reported a loss of funds as a result of cybercriminal activity are covered by the complaint process. XTB is contacting them directly to carry out the reimbursement process. At the same time, we are conducting educational activities in cooperation with industry media, we are delivering the “Scamming Out” campaign, which explains how to recognize fraud attempts and better protect personal data. We are also continuing to develop our technological solutions, with additional features planned to increase account control, including the ability to quickly log out from all sessions and additional mechanisms to monitor activity.
Our goal is to provide tools that support clients in investing and managing their funds securely.

Even though July weather hasn’t quite felt like summer, we look back fondly on the XTB June Picnic when the sunshine showed up right on cue.
More than 700 people from XTB came together to kick off the summer and spend some time outside the office. It was a great opportunity to slow down for a moment, have conversations in a more relaxed setting, and simply enjoy each other’s company.
On June 4th in Warsaw, we spent the day outdoors, taking part in activities, games, and shared moments. For many, it was also a chance to connect with colleagues they don’t usually get to work with on a daily basis.
Thank you to everyone who joined us. We hope that positive summer energy stays with us for a long time. ☀️
