Compare The Market Limited is a UK registered company, previously named Comparethemarket (CTM) Limited, based in Peterborough. Its registered activity is classified as other business support services, and industry tags associate it with application software and data aggregation, consistent with operating a price comparison service that lets consumers compare products such as insurance, utilities and financial products online. The evidence available consists mainly of Companies House filing records rather than a description of specific services offered, so operational detail is limited. The company files full annual accounts and confirmation statements and remains active, with several director appointments and terminations recorded over recent years.
