Six months ago Metaquotes announced successful certification of the MetaTrader 5 platform by the Russin RTS stock exchange. Seems that they have continued to develop their platform to expand to other exchanges. And today Metaquotes announced that the MT5 trading platform has been certified for the Singapore Mercantile Exchange. The platform now meets all the technical requirements proved by tests run by the SMX, and can connect to the exchange via a special gateway. In addition, Metaquotes has received the ISV status (independent software vendor) from the Asian stock exchange.
Now, any broker working on the Singapore Mercantile Exchange, can use MT5 to provide services to their traders. "It is not our last step in this direction," Eric Lee, the head of our Asia-Pacific office, said. "We have successfully created a high-quality product that meets all the requirements of the Singapore Mercantile Exchange. But we will continue our efforts to offer even more opportunities in our platform." This year the list of supported stock exchanges will be extended.
