FP Markets
continues to solidify its position as a leading force in the Forex
and CFDs
industry, having recently been awarded ‘Best Trading Experience – Africa’ at
this year’s Financial Achievements in Markets Excellency (FAME) Awards. This
follows their ‘Best CFD Broker in Africa’ recognition at the 2023 FAME Awards,
cementing the broker’s strategic geographical expansion.
The FAME ceremony was held at the
prestigious Sandton Convention Centre in Sandton, South Africa, following the
end of the first day of the Finance Magnates Africa Summit (FMAS). Organised
for the second consecutive year and with over 2500 attendees, the FMAS is
considered one of the largest fintech gatherings in the region, bringing
together industry experts, top-tier brokers and traders from across the region.
FP Markets is one of the first brokers of
its calibre to enter the African fintech landscape while at the same time
appreciating the need for regulation and consumer protection. To this end, the
company received a regulatory licence from the Financial Sector Conduct
Authority (FSCA) of South Africa in May 2022 and was granted a non-dealing
Foreign Exchange Broker License by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) of Kenya
for its locally formed subsidiary FP Markets Limited last December.
When
asked about the award, FP Markets’ Country Manager in South Africa, Nerash
Pillay, commented: ‘On behalf of the FP Markets team, I would like to thank
FAME Africa for this honour. This award exemplifies our client-centric approach
and underscores our commitment to meeting the ever-evolving demands of African
traders. Our local team goes the extra mile to ensure all our clients have the
resources and support required to enjoy a seamless trading experience,
including education, ultra-fast execution, transparency and cost efficiency.’
