This is what Michael Stumm, OANDA's CEO, had to say about this deal: "We’re delighted and honored that a leading bank such as HSBC has launched its new retail forex platform using OANDA's leading-edge technology, making it available to HSBC's vast customer base. Our extensive experience in creating trading technology and providing retail forex services is a natural complement to HSBC’s well-established institutional forex offering."
HSBC today announced the strengthening of its FX franchise with the release of a Margin FX trading service to retail customers in Hong Kong.
Through a strategic relationship with OANDA Corporation (OANDA), this development is an important step in the overall strategy to continually enhance and broaden the HSBC FX offering to clients.
Utilising cutting edge trading technology, the Forex trading platform receives streaming prices from HSBC’s global Foreign Exchange dealing desks, direct to the desktops and mobile devices of HSBC’s qualifying retail customer base.
