RAKBANK Launches Digital Equities Trading With Access to 30,000 Global Stocks
RAKBANK has launched its Digital Equities investment service, allowing customers to trade more than 30,000 global stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The service operates directly through the RAKBANK mobile banking app, offering a convenient way to access international financial markets.
Powered by GTN, the platform provides access to major equity markets, including the United States, United Kingdom and Europe. Moreover, customers can complete digital onboarding and manage investments without switching between banking and trading applications.
The launch also strengthens RAKBANK’s digital wealth management services. Additionally, the bank plans to introduce UAE equities in a future phase, expanding investment opportunities for customers.
Digital Investment Access With Competitive Trading Fees
Through the new service, customers can open investment accounts and begin trading within their existing mobile banking app. As a result, investors can manage everyday banking and international investments through one platform.
Furthermore, trading fees for US equities start at just $1 per transaction. This pricing aims to make international investing more accessible to customers with different financial goals and experience levels.
The service also supports customers seeking to build and diversify their investment portfolios. Meanwhile, its integrated digital experience reduces the need for separate brokerage applications.
By combining banking and investment services, RAKBANK aims to provide greater convenience and transparency. Consequently, customers can access multiple financial services through a familiar digital platform.
RAKBANK Partners With GTN to Expand Global Market Connectivity
To support Digital Equities, RAKBANK has partnered with GTN, a global investment and trading infrastructure fintech.
Under the partnership, GTN supplies brokerage technology, international market connectivity and trade execution capabilities. Therefore, customers can access global exchanges directly through the RAKBANK app.
Additionally, the collaboration combines RAKBANK’s digital banking services with GTN’s investment infrastructure. This integration supports a streamlined trading experience across international equity markets.
The partnership also forms part of RAKBANK’s broader strategy to expand its digital wealth management ecosystem. Furthermore, the bank aims to bring additional asset classes into its mobile platform over time.
Digital Equities Now Available to RAKBANK Customers
RAKBANK’s Digital Equities service is now live and available to customers across all segments.
Customers can access international stocks and ETFs through the same application they use for everyday banking. Moreover, the platform supports investors with varying experience levels and investment objectives.
With more than 30,000 investment options, the service broadens access to global financial markets. Meanwhile, the planned addition of UAE equities will further expand the platform’s investment offering.
Overall, the launch marks another step towards integrating banking, investing and digital wealth management into a single mobile experience.
