Ayondo Expands into Spain, Opens Offices in Barcelona and Madrid
- The company is opening up a third major market in Europe, appointing Raza Perez to lead the effort.

Social trading brokerage ayondo is launching its services in a third major European market. The company is starting to offer its services in Spain after receiving official approval from the local regulator. After the Spanish National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) introduced some new requirements for trading platforms for retail traders earlier this year, ayondo is allowed to open offices in Barcelona and Madrid.
The entry into the Spanish market for ayondo represents the third major commitment for the social trading brokerage. After Germany and the UK, the FCA-regulated company is targeting a market which has been developing at a slower rate when compared to some of its EU peers.
