INGOT Brokers, a global brokerage firm, has made a notable
advancement in its expansion plans by acquiring a license from the Securities
and Commodities Authority (SCA) in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
This follows the company’s earlier announcement regarding
the approval from the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) in Kenya, which granted
INGOT Africa Ltd. a license to operate as a non-dealing online forex broker in
Kenya. The platform in Kenya is already active, offering forex and contracts
for differences (CFDs) on indices, stocks, commodities, and exchange-traded
funds (ETFs).
INGOT Brokers Secures SCA License, UAE
The SCA license allows INGOT Brokers to introduce and
promote financial products and services in the UAE, furthering its strategy to
expand its global presence. The UAE is known for its established financial
markets, and INGOT Brokers aims to serve traders in this region with a variety
of financial instruments, advanced trading platforms, and professional support.
The SCA ensures that firms comply with industry standards. The
company’s entry into the UAE market is part of its broader effort to build a
trusted, transparent, and secure trading environment for clients globally.
According to the firm, this move reflects INGOT Brokers’
focus on establishing a presence in key financial hubs and providing traders
with the necessary resources to navigate global markets.
Receives Licenses in Kenya, Seychelles
The
Kenyan regulator issued the license just a few months after INGOT Brokers
received similar approval from South Africa’s Financial Sector Conduct
Authority (FSCA).
In July 2022, the broker further expanded its global
presence by obtaining a license from the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in
Seychelles. The company also set up offices in South Africa and Seychelles.
Founded in 2006, INGOT Brokers is regulated in Australia and Jordan.
INGOT Brokers Appoints Former BDSwiss Executives
Meanwhile, INGOT
Brokers has appointed two former BDSwiss executives: Andreas Andreou as
Chief Sales Officer and Marios Morfakis as Head of Business Development. Both
individuals left BDSwiss during a period when many other employees also
departed.
Following his departure, Andreou co-founded a proprietary
trading platform, where he currently serves as co-CEO. He confirmed to Finance
Magnates that he will continue in this role while taking on his new
responsibilities at INGOT.
