The key targets will be the existing high net worth clients, fund managers, brokers and banks who are looking to diversify their portfolio and are comfortable with the risk profile and volatility that investing and trading in derivatives can offer.
ATFX is controlled by Hong Kong based entrepreneur and group Chairman Joe Li. The group has licensed subsidiaries in the UK (FCA), Cyprus (CySEC), Mauritius, the UAE, and Australia following the company’s 2023 acquisition of the ASIC licensed CFDs business of Rakuten Australia.
