StoneX Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SNEX) has announced the Australian launch of FOREX.com, expanding access for self-directed traders to a global suite of Contracts for Difference (CFD) products across multiple asset classes.
The platform provides Australian customers with the ability to trade FX pairs, metals, indices, stocks, cryptocurrencies, commodities and grains, supported by advanced execution tools, risk management features and global market insights.
FOREX.com extends StoneX’s mission to deliver transparent, price-competitive, and customer-first trading solutions through a combination of technology, education, and dedicated support. Local traders will now benefit from a mobile app designed for speed and usability, robust educational content, and local customer service backed by analysts across the Americas, Europe and Asia-Pacific.
Originally launched in the United States in 2001 to educate and support self-directed foreign exchange traders, FOREX.com has since grown to offer CFD services across Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific. In 2020, the platform’s holding company was acquired by StoneX, a Fortune 50 global financial services firm that serves over 54,000 commercial, institutional and payments clients and more than 260,000 retail accounts across 80 offices worldwide.
Lucik Li, Head of Self Directed for StoneX Australia, said the launch marks a major step in supporting Australia’s growing community of independent traders.
“This launch marks a significant milestone in empowering Australia’s self-directed customers to access global CFD markets, combining advanced execution tools, dedicated local support and educational resources to help customers trade confidently,” Ms Li said.
“FOREX.com is broadening access to trading opportunities while providing dedicated support and advanced execution strategies, reflecting our commitment to support our customers at every level of experience.”
Greg Kallinikos, Chief Executive Officer, APAC, said the platform’s entry into the Australian market reinforces StoneX’s goal of helping traders navigate global markets with confidence.
“Our goal is to help customers trade smarter, move faster and make confident decisions in dynamic market conditions,” Mr Kallinikos said.
FOREX.com operates in Australia under StoneX Financial Pty Ltd, which is regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).
