Richard Douglas, CEO of Hong Kong, Saxo Markets
, comments, “We have all seen how the pandemic, activist investing and associated market volatility have accelerated the rise of retail investors. As we see more investors enter the market, we are very excited to launch Let’s Trade Better With Saxo as we believe investors in Hong Kong can be empowered by the broad range of products and access to global markets that we offer.   

“Saxo has been in Hong Kong for over 10 years and we are committed to support even more Hong Kong investors to take control of their wealth and financial aspirations. Saxo’s trading platforms cater to investors with varying levels of experience, and whether they choose SaxoInvestor or SaxoTraderGO, they can access more markets and asset classes, while using timely, relevant and insightful research as well as state-of-the-art risk management tools to help them navigate the markets, make informed decisions, and trade better. With Saxo’s platforms, our clients can indeed trade like a ‘Pro’,” Douglas said.

Saxo clients can access more than 60 exchanges globally with over 40,000 instruments covering asset classes ranging from stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, forex, futures, options, and commodities. Investors can build and diversify their portfolios through one single account. Investors can filter the instruments not just by asset class, but also by fundamentals like market capitalisation or price-earnings ratio, or by technical analysis like returns using the “Screener” tool. This helps investors to identify their next trade. The AI tool “Trade Signals” built-in Saxo’s platforms also let investors get alerts for trading actions and save time on technical analysis.

Inspirational content and market insights are more important now than ever as investors look for guidance to seize global growth opportunities and manage their risks better, especially during critical moments in a volatile market like right now. Besides the multi-market and multi-asset offerings, Saxo’s in-house strategists consisting of eight experts covering different markets and asset classes gives clients actionable insights daily to help them stay up to date. The strategist team also curates localised investment themes, the most extensive and locally relevant for Hong Kong investors, including Equity themes across Digitalisation, ESG Stocks, Space: Investing in the final frontier, New Infrastructure in Greater China, and more.
