ATFX, an industry-leading FX and CFDs broker, announced that it has obtained a Type 3 license by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), representing another milestone in its global expansion.
According to ATFX, this license provides a solid foundation for it to provide services to institutional professional investors in Hong Kong, and signifies the company's penetration into the Asian market and robust growth of its global business.
In addition to this newly acquired Hong Kong license, ATFX also holds financial licenses issued by some regulators in other countries and regions, such as the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) of the United Kingdom, the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) and the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).
According to the information provided by the Hong Kong SFC portal, since July 22 this year, ATFX can provide leveraged foreign exchange trading under the provisions of the Securities and Futures Ordinance.
Joe Li, Chairman of ATFX, said, "We are thrilled to have been granted the Hong Kong SFC license, which is a significant milestone for ATFX. This license not only strengthens our commitment to the Hong Kong market, but also validates our dedication to the highest regulatory standards and our unwavering focus on providing our institutional professional clients with a secure and trusted trading environment. We look forward to further expanding our presence and serving our valued Hong Kong-based clients with the exceptional service they have come to expect from ATFX."
