Mitrade platform introduces insurance to bolster trader confidence in the Australian market.
Significance of Mitrade's Initiative
Mitrade announced the introduction of an Excess of Loss Insurance policy backed by Lloyd’s of London, covering losses up to AUD 1 million due to company insolvency. This initiative underscores the importance of risk management and trader protection in the market.
Role of ASIC Regulator
Mitrade operates under the strict oversight of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). The platform complies with mandatory safeguards such as segregated funds and professional indemnity insurance.
Steps Towards Market Sustainability
According to Elven Jong, CEO of Mitrade Australia, their new policy not only complies with requirements but also offers an extra layer of protection. This is a response to the growing demand from traders for better protection and educational resources. Importantly, the Australian government also plans to launch a National AI Capability Plan.
Mitrade's initiative signals significant shifts within the industry, emphasizing financial security, trader education, and risk management.
