ACY Securities Opens South Africa Office, Launches ACY Trading Platform

ACY Securities, the fintech-driven multi-asset trading house, today confirmed the expansion of its South African operations following last year’s acquisition of Ingot Brokers South Africa. With its FSCA licence (51008) firmly in place, the company has opened a dedicated office in Johannesburg, bringing the ACY Trading Platform, MT4, MT5, and Copy Trading to one of the continent’s most sophisticated financial centres.

South Africa offers a powerful blend of deep capital markets, a rapidly growing retail-trading community, and a respected regulatory landscape. By establishing a local presence, ACY Securities is positioned to unlock significant revenue potential while adding fresh momentum to its global expansion strategy.

The decision to fast-track operations was reinforced in May when the ACY Connect team attended the FMAS:25 Finance Magnates Africa Summit at the Cape Town International Convention Centre. Discussions sparked at the summit have evolved into decisive actions that broaden ACY’s presence throughout the region.

Jimmy Ye, CEO and Co-Founder of ACY Securities, said:

“South Africa stands out as a gateway to the wider African market and a proven hub for international investors. Launching full operations here allows us to pair world-class liquidity with locally focused service, creating a compelling offer for traders and institutions alike. With the ACY Trading Platform now live alongside MT4, MT5, and Copy Trading, we expect this market to become a meaningful driver of group revenue and a springboard for further expansion.”

Recent milestones underline the company’s commitment to constant innovation:

• Broader cryptocurrency line-up: 20 crypto CFDs, including weekend trading, give clients extra flexibility and round-the-clock opportunity.
• Seamless multi-platform access: South African traders can choose the ACY Trading Platform for advanced web-based functionality or stay with familiar MT4, MT5, and Copy Trading solutions.
• On-the-ground support: A dedicated Customer Success team and personal account managers for retail clients and forex affiliate partnership managers are now based in Johannesburg, providing multilingual assistance and education.
