European Headquarters Established Following Lithuania License
DriveWealth has also obtained a brokerage license from the Bank of Lithuania, expanding its global reach, as reported by Finance Magnates.
The Category B license allows DriveWealth to establish its European headquarters in Vilnius, Lithuania, complementing its existing operations in the United States and Singapore. The new entity, DriveWealth Europe, will manage the company’s operations in Europe.
Equities Trading Services Extended Across Markets
Earlier, Blue Ocean Technologies and DriveWealth partnered to expand equities trading services, offering greater access to data and trading, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region and other global markets.
This collaboration enables traders in various time zones to access equities services and data, with DriveWealth’s connectivity to Blue Ocean Technologies ensuring real-time execution around the clock. Brian Hyndman, CEO of Blue Ocean Technologies, emphasized the company’s commitment to expanding its market reach. Last year, DriveWealth partnered with Devexperts to introduce fractional share trading in response to growing demand.
