eToro announced today (Tuesday) it will add all securities listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) to its platform in a phased rollout, expanding investor access to Chinese and Asian markets.

eToro Expands Platform with Addition of All HKEX-Listed Securities

The addition will include all HKEX-listed stocks and exchange -traded products (ETPs), including exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and leveraged and inverse products. Users will also benefit from real-time pricing data provided directly by HKEX.

"By expanding our offering to include more companies listed on HKEX – one of the world's top ten stock exchanges by market capitalization – we are further strengthening our commitment to making global markets accessible to everyone," said Yossi Brandes, VP of Execution Services at eToro.

This expansion follows eToro's February addition of Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) stocks to its platform, continuing the company's strategy of broadening market access for its global user base.

The move aligns with investor sentiment captured in eToro's latest quarterly Retail Investor Beat survey, which found that over 22% of global investors believe China will generate the strongest returns over the next five years. The survey polled 10,000 retail investors across 12 countries in February and March 2025.

Gateway to Chinese Markets

"This collaboration will enhance retail investors' access to the Hong Kong market and empower their decision-making with high-quality market data," said Winnie Sin, Head of Data Business, Platform & Market Structure Development at HKEX.

"With our unique role as the superconnector between Mainland China and the rest of the world, we are dedicated to enhancing capital market channels, products, and partnerships."

HKEX is strategically positioned as a gateway to Chinese markets, offering international investors regulated access to companies in the world's second-largest economy.

Moreover, the company launched a new offering for the UK and European users, allowing to earn additional money by lending their stocks.

eToro, founded in 2007, now serves over 40 million registered users in 75 countries. It has paused its preparations for an upcoming public listing on Nasdaq and it currently “evaluates market conditions.”
