Moomoo launches expands offering in Japan and Australia

Moomoo, the Nasdaq-listed brokerage, is expanding its product offerings in Australia and Japan, by introducing CHESS-sponsored trades in Australia and Japanese stock trading services in Japan.

The retail broker keeps enhancing its operations across the Asia Pacific. Prior to this move in Australia and Japan, Moomoo launched its super app in Malaysia, positioning itself among the first global digital brokerages to receive the Capital Market Services License from the Securities Commission Malaysia, enabling it to offer securities and derivatives trading services.

Moomoo Australia now directly linked to ASX

In Australia, moomoo has initiated CHESS-sponsored trades, enabling Australian investors to directly access and own shares on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) with minimal trading fees starting from AUD $3 per trade.

Moomoo’s integration with CHESS sponsors adds an extra layer of security for client assets, in addition to existing measures like client funds segregation and SIPC insurance for US assets.
