Audi
Capital unveiled a new online trading platform last week, giving Saudi
investors access to dozens of international markets through a partnership with
fintech firm GTN.
The broker
launched “Audi Tadawul” at its Riyadh offices on September 30, aiming
the platform at wealthy individuals, institutions, family offices and
corporations. Users can trade equities, ETFs, bonds, currencies, derivatives,
commodities and alternative investments across more than 80 markets.
Audi
Capital holds a securities license from Saudi Arabia's Capital Market
Authority, issued in 2006. The firm offers dealing, arranging, investment
management advisory and custody services under local regulations.

provided the technology backbone for the platform. The fintech company operates
broker-dealer licenses across multiple countries and employs over 500 people in
14 markets. Its investors include IFC, part of the World Bank Group, and SBI
Group, a Tokyo-listed financial services firm.

“Our
partnership with Audi Capital represents a powerful step forward in
democratizing access to global markets,” said Damian Bunce, CEO of GTN
Middle East.
The
platform includes real-time market data, charting tools and risk management
features. Investors can access it through web browsers and mobile devices using
a single account.
Saudi
Arabia has been pushing to expand its financial services sector as part of
Vision 2030, the kingdom's economic diversification plan. The government wants
to grow Riyadh as a regional financial hub and attract more international
investment.
Daniel Asmar, CEO of Audi Capital
Daniel
Asmar, CEO of Audi Capital, said the platform “empowers our clients to
invest with speed, precision and confidence in both the Saudi and global
financial markets across various asset classes.”
Audi
Capital has operated in Saudi Arabia for nearly two decades. The firm says it
follows international wealth and asset management standards while complying
with local requirements.
The broker
didn't disclose pricing details, investment minimums or projected client
numbers for the new platform. GTN also didn't specify which of its 14 country
operations would support the Saudi service.
Several
international brokers have expanded in the Gulf region recently as local
regulators ease restrictions and wealthy investors seek portfolio
diversification beyond oil-linked assets.

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
