15 April 2025 – Trading and investing platform eToro announced today it is adding all HKEX-listed stocks and exchange-traded products (ETPs, including exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, as well as Leveraged & Inverse Products) to the eToro platform in phases. Apart from gaining access to new stocks and ETPs, eToro’s users will also benefit from high-quality real-time pricing data provided by HKEX.
According to eToro’s latest Retail Investor Beat, a quarterly survey of 10,000 retail investors located across 12 countries, over one in five (22%) global investors believe that China will generate the strongest returns over the next five years and more. This development will vastly enhance access to Chinese and other Asian equities on the eToro platform, broadening investment opportunities for eToro’s users.
Yossi Brandes, VP of Execution Services at eToro, said: “At eToro, our mission is to make global markets more accessible to everyone, which is why we have enabled access to more than 20 stock exchanges. By expanding our stock and ETP offering to include more companies listed on HKEX – one of the world’s top ten stock exchanges by market capitalisation – we are further strengthening this commitment, providing investors with access to leading Chinese and international companies. This underscores our dedication to continuously enhancing our product suite, ensuring we meet the evolving needs of investors both globally and locally.”
Winnie Sin, Head of Data Business, Platform & Market Structure Development at Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited said: “We are delighted to work with eToro to bring the dynamic opportunities of our market to the international investor community. This collaboration will enhance investors’ access to the Hong Kong market and empower their decision-making with high-quality market data. With our unique role as the superconnector between Mainland China and the rest of the world, we are dedicated to enhancing capital market channels, products, and partnerships, thereby reinforcing our position as the leading platform that connects capital with opportunity.”
