According to PANews, Tiger Securities (Hong Kong) has announced that it has received approval from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission to upgrade its license. This move allows the firm to extend its virtual asset trading services to retail investors in Hong Kong. Previously, these services were only available to professional investors in the region.
Now, retail investors across Hong Kong can invest in a variety of global assets through the Tiger Trade platform. These assets include Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as stocks, options, futures, US Treasury bonds, and funds. This development allows for seamless allocation and management of virtual assets alongside traditional financial assets, all at a reasonable cost.
This expansion of services by Tiger Securities is a significant step towards integrating virtual assets into the mainstream financial market in Hong Kong.
