OANDA Launches New Operations in the EU with Multi-Asset Offering

Oanda now operates across eight regulated entities and will offer over 3,000 financial instruments through this EU multi-asset offering

March 17, 2023 - OANDA announced the launch of new operations in the EU following a strategic change aimed at refocusing their retail trading operations in the EU around a wider range of asset classes.

OANDA's operations are now run from Warsaw, Poland, under the financial regulatory authority of KNF, the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (PFSA).

Through this launch, OANDA will provide a multi-asset offering to EU investors and traders, including CFDs on FX, indices, commodities, precious metals, cryptos, shares, and a wide variety of non-leveraged equity shares.

In addition, their shares offering will enable clients to build positions in companies, including US listed equities with clients trading from a EUR account can now trade shares of 1,700 individual US companies with 0% commission.

The OANDA TMS app will also provide access to global markets for stocks and CFDs allowing traders to design and build their own investment portfolio. Clients can also trade with OANDA via MetaTrader 5, access news, trade ideas, and market analysis along with advanced tools such as Historical Spreads and Trader Sentiment.

Marcin Niewiadomski, Head of Europe, commented, "This is an exciting new chapter and a significant growth opportunity for OANDA in the EU. We want to serve the client in the best way possible, so we made the decision to base our operations in Poland. This was a natural choice, as it will enable us to build the OANDA brand on the strengths of OANDA TMS, which the OANDA group acquired in 2021 for its deep product offering and cutting-edge tech stack.
