China CITIC Bank International has launched a Foreign Exchange and Gold Margin Trading Service online platform in a move to provide high net worth individuals including the Bank’s Private Banking customers as well as those from China CITIC Bank with increased convenience in cross-border foreign exchange and gold margin trading.

The foreign exchange market is the largest financial market in the world. Recent fluctuations in the foreign exchange market provide discerning investors with ample opportunity. Although many banking institutions in Hong Kong offer foreign exchange margin trading services, but most do so via the telephone and only a few are equipped with a sophisticated 24-hour online trading platform.
