Webull Securities (Australia) Pty Ltd (‘Webull’), a subsidiary of Webull Corporation, the popular trading platform, announced that it has been admitted as an ASX Participant, launching cash equities on its trading platform, alongside its current offering of US stocks, ETFs and options, with more products to be offered shortly.
Positioning itself as a significant challenger in the Australian market, Webull now offers access to 2,000+ ASX-listed stocks, ETFs and hybrid securities, which sit alongside 15,000+ US stocks and options – all easily accessible on its desktop and mobile trading platforms.
Rob Talevski, CEO Webull Australia, says that this approach places Webull among top-tier brokers in Australia, “Webull is a serious business, so we wanted to take a serious and responsible approach in the way we entered the Australian market. There are only a handful of ASX participants predominately focused on retail investors, so taking that route and giving our clients underlying ownership via single HINs demonstrates that we’re here to put our clients first.”
Led by Talevski, who is a 20-year veteran of the Australian stockbroking scene, Webull operates a culture of sound corporate etiquette and works with local institutions and regulators to offer a trusted home to millions of potential Australian investors.
Webull’s plan to offer additional global markets across multiple asset classes allows the firm to avoid concentrating too intensely on any single market as a business. It is the breadth of this approach that has allowed the company to price itself competitively, while offering services that elevate the customer experience to that which premium share traders in Australia are accustomed to.
“Competing with cutting-edge fintech platforms in the US translated into a huge investment in our technology. The result is a platform that caters not just for beginner investors, but also for advanced traders in Australia that demand features like heat maps across multiple global markets and sectors, options screeners, live pricing, market depth, financial analysis and corporate actions. Up until now, these features have generally been available in Australia through third-party software vendors that can’t match the Webull user experience – it’s an extremely exciting product for premium clients,” adds Talevski.
Webull’s Australian clients join over 35 million users globally, taking advantage of the scale that allows the firm to offer a competitive yet sustainable pricing model, all available using its powerful and intuitive platforms.
As the business continues to provide Australian traders with greater global opportunities, Webull anticipates adding Hong Kong and China A shares to its local platform shortly, providing a single home for investors who seek international exposure alongside ASX shares, accessible via a single multi-currency account.
