Commenting on the announcement, the CEO of anyoption, Shy Datika, said: “We are proud to extend our Market Makers licence into the areas of Portfolio Management and Investment Advice. anyoption has always put regulation first and we see this extension as an opportunity to introduce to our large and loyal customer base new range of products that are different the traditional Binary Options.”
Anyoption has been expanding the scope of its regulated activity, most recently by a partnership enabling it to enter the South African market. The addition of new credentials for its trading license in Cyprus implies that the firm’s intention is to broaden the scope of its activity as well.
