Abstract：Amillex Global gains ASIC AFSL licence, boosting FX and CFDs credibility. Expansion targets Asia, Australia, and institutional trading growth.
Amillex Globals Regulatory Breakthrough
Retail FX and CFDs broker Amillex Global has officially received an Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL No. 559321) from the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). This achievement is significant because few new licences have been granted in recent years, reflecting ASICs tighter stance on OTC derivatives regulation.
Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, but domiciled in Mauritius, Amillex has operated for several years as an offshore broker. The firm provides access to MT4 and MT5 trading platforms, widely used by retail and institutional traders worldwide.
Strategic Focus on Asia and Institutional Growth
Amillex has historically concentrated on China and the Far East, building a strong client base in these regions. The company recently appointed Mark Tsang, a seasoned executive with experience at ACY Securities, CMC Markets, Fortune Prime, and Decode Capital, as Head of Business Development.
This hire signals a push toward institutional partnerships and regional expansion, aligning with the firm‘s broader strategy to diversify beyond retail FX. Amillex’s Managing Director Andy Lee continues to lead operations from Sydney, ensuring continuity while scaling new initiatives.
What the ASIC Licence Means for Brokers and Traders
Securing an ASIC licence enhances Amillexs credibility and trustworthiness, especially in a market where regulatory approval is increasingly rare. For traders, the licence provides reassurance that the broker meets stringent compliance standards, including capital adequacy, risk management, and client fund protections.
For the industry, Amillexs success demonstrates that new entrants can still achieve regulatory approval in Australia, despite a challenging environment. This positions the firm to compete more effectively with established brokers, offering PAMM accounts, copy trading, liquidity solutions, and institutional services.
