Ireland and Israel based Retail FX and CFDs broker AvaTrade has announced that the company has received authorisation from the Financial Superintendence of Colombia (SFC) to operate within the country. The company said that this pivotal achievement underscores AvaTrade’s commitment to adhering to the highest regulatory standards and delivering a secure and transparent trading experience to Colombian clients.
Globally recognised for its comprehensive suite of financial products and services, AvaTrade now brings Colombian traders a superior trading experience focused on cutting-edge technology, exceptional customer service, extensive educational resources, and uncompromising security. In line with this commitment, client funds are safeguarded in segregated accounts, while AvaTrade’s ongoing investment in its advanced trading platforms ensures a fast, secure, and seamless trading experience across both mobile and desktop devices.
Daire Ferguson, CEO of AvaTrade Group, commented,
“Our entry into Colombia marks a crucial step in our global expansion strategy and strengthens our regulatory presence in the LATAM market.
