Harborx to showcase its in-house trading app at FinovateAsia 2017

Oct 10 2017
By Jonathan Smith

CySEC-regulated forex broker Harborx is among the selected presenters at FinovateAsia 2017, one of Asia’s premier fintech events to be held on November, 7-8 in Hong Kong. Following the success of Harborx’s new generation trading app at FinDEVr London earlier this year, the broker gears up to share its unique trading solution at the financial technology conference in Hong Kong.

Harborx is an innovative broker that strives to make forex trading fun and accessible to beginners through the latest gamification and social features, integrated with the company’s own trading engine. Unlike most forex brokers that offer popular third-party trading platforms like MetaTrader 4, Harborx provides a trading platform available as a mobile app for iOS and Android, targeting investors who are looking for a gamified social trading tool instead of traditional solutions.

‘Harborx is probably the first company to combine trading with gaming in such a way’, commented David Sung, a Chief Technology officer at Harborx, who will deliver the presentation at FinovateAsia 2017. ‘As we wanted to simplify trading and make it exciting through gamification, neither of the popular third-party trading platforms could meet our requirements. Harborx team ended up building our own trading engine and combining it with gamification features. Our developers had to overcome multiple challenges, such as asynchronous development cycles and the fact that we cannot afford even slightest delay in data flow. We believe that our experience can be valuable to startups and brands striving to make their financial technology accessible to clients’, Sung added.

While many players in the forex and fintech field focus on B2B solutions, Harborx is a consumer-oriented brand that delivers its proprietary solutions to customers directly, making forex trading fun and accessible to anyone with a mobile. Behind the brand is Harborx Limited, a new fintech company with offices in Hong Kong and Cyprus, that is regulated by Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC).
