“We have been at the center of the empowerment of the retail investor for decades, supplying the technology to facilitate cross-border access to U.S. markets. Our demonstrated ability to provide a full-service, end-to-end solution to a diverse global customer base continues to prove its value every day.”

ViewTrade has reported extensive customer growth over the course of 2022 as its client base increased by more than 35% and total accounts powered by ViewTrade technology increased by more than 200% from October 2021 to October 2022.

Culminating in the launch of a carrying broker services offering in December, 2022, TradeView’s successful year also came in the heels of its geographical expansion, now serving financial services firms in 26 countries.

ViewTrade to add further value to platform in 2023

Tony Petrilli, CEO of ViewTrade, said: “While ViewTrade started out more than 20 years ago as a provider of brokerage services to retail-focused, international financial firms, as the industry evolved, so did we – embracing fintech to incorporate into our offerings. Today, we offer a fully integrated suite of solutions that include cost-effective technology, support and brokerage services. Our growth in 2022 is a testament to the dedication of our team and the partnerships we have formed with our clients. And it’s only the beginning as we look ahead to even greater things in 2023.”

Forthcoming additions to the ViewTrade offering include:

  • Introducing next-generation web and mobile apps
  • Introducing expanded bank custody relationships and services
  • Introducing enhanced version of ViewTrade’s Watchmen platform, the OMS for Retail
  • Introducing new products targeting long-term and high net-worth investors
  • Establishing ViewTrade’s first full-service international operations center to meet the needs of financial services firms catering to non-U.S. residents

“Simply put, we are an investment services-enabling business. We have been at the center of the empowerment of the retail investor for decades, supplying the technology to facilitate cross-border access to U.S. markets. Our demonstrated ability to provide a full-service, end-to-end solution to a diverse global customer base continues to prove its value every day”, Petrilli continued.

“We are on a mission to help our clients increase revenues, reduce costs and expand profit margins so they can focus resources on creating innovative retail trading solutions for their customers. While we see competitors come and go, downsizing in the face of cash burn or just getting accounts to justify their next funding round, we are in our third decade of steadily supporting our clients in their journey. And we couldn’t be more excited about what’s to come in 2023.”

FIA urges CFTC to regulate use cases rather than AI itself

“We urge the CFTC to refrain from crafting new regulations that generally regulate AI because this approach presents certain well-known pitfalls. By approaching the issue from the perspective of AI as a technology, rather than the use case for the technology, corresponding regulations would likely necessitate a definition of AI. We anticipate that any attempt to properly define AI would be very challenging and require considerable resources.”
