SINGAPORE, Dec 2, 2020 - (ACN Newswire) - Xiaomi-backed Tiger Brokers Singapore today announced a 3-fold growth in account openings during 3Q2020 as compared to 2Q2020. Tiger Brokers Singapore also saw an increase in trading value of 540% as compared to 2Q2020. The Technology and Electronic Vehicles (EV) sectors has seen the most amount of interest with demand for companies such as APPLE, TESLA, NIO, due to investors' positive expectations for the companies in the long run.
This growth was driven by an increased interest in investing during this period, due to a digitally-driven lifestyle cultivated during the pandemic where more Singapore investors tried online trading. A recent report (e-Conomy SEA 2020) showed a regional trend towards the digitalisation in finance, where Investment Assets under management in the region is expected to grow to US$84 billion in 2025 at a Compound Annual Rate Growth (CAGR) of 32 per cent. The online trading platform launched in February this year, and 30 per cent of its users in Singapore aged between 18-24 years old.
Tiger Brokers Singapore also enhanced their platform during this period, providing access to top exchanges around the world for their investors. They launched access to the Singapore Exchange (SGX) and Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) in June and September this year, and coupled with an attractive low commission fee, allowing Singapore-based investors the ability to access more than 7 global exchanges for their investment needs. The fintech also taps on both traditional and digital communications methods to ensure that investors can contact them easily via landline and social media respectively.
Eng Thiam Choon, CEO of Tiger Brokers Singapore, shared, "2020 is a pivotal year for Tiger Brokers Singapore as we continue to capitalise on growing market opportunities catapulted by the increase in digital finance during the past few months. As we continue to see an increased number of investors who have recently adopted online trading, our team continues to ensure that both the online and mobile platforms offer superior functions and solutions to allow investors to be equipped with the necessary tools for a smooth trading process. We look forward to helping our clients expand their investment choices further with our holistic suite of products and access to additional markets in the near future."
"Our data also showed that our investors were aware of and were reacting to investment trends caused by COVID-19. Clients were generally cautious in investments after the worst of the volatility was over, as evidenced by relative account openings in November as we have recorded our best month in terms of client onboarding so far this year."
Tiger Broker Singapore aims to increase their platform users by 50 per cent by Q1 of 2021. To do so, they are constantly improving their platform's user experience by looking to add more products by early next year.
