  • Expands derivatives access for Malaysian investors with direct connectivity to HKEX-listed options

  • Enables seamless cross-market options trading across Hong Kong and US markets within a single platform

MALAYSIA [10 April 2026] — Moomoo Malaysia today announced the launch of Hong Kong stock options trading on its platform, becoming the first licensed broker in Malaysia to offer access to this segment of the market.

With this launch, Malaysian investors can now trade options listed on the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited, unlocking new opportunities to engage with leading Hong Kong and China-linked companies through more advanced trading and portfolio strategies.

More importantly, the addition of Hong Kong stock options introduces a true cross-market derivatives experience, enabling investors to trade Hong Kong options during Asian market hours and US options during the night, all within a single, unified platform. This positions Moomoo Malaysia as one of the few platforms in the region to support round-the-clock options trading across major global markets, while allowing users to manage their portfolios holistically across geographies.

This launch comes at a time when investors are navigating increasingly fragmented and fast-moving markets. As return drivers diverge across regions, the ability to express views and manage risk dynamically across time zones has become increasingly important. Options are playing a growing role in this shift, offering flexibility not only in strategy execution, but also in how portfolios are constructed and adjusted over time.

Moomoo Malaysia’s offering is supported by a suite of integrated tools designed to enhance both strategy development and execution. Users can build and visualise options strategies through an intuitive interface, supported by comprehensive risk-reward analysis. Real-time market access is also enabled through HKEX Level 1 options quotes, allowing investors to react quickly to market movements from the moment they begin trading. This is complemented by a seamless cross-device experience across mobile, tablet, and desktop, ensuring consistency in execution regardless of how users access the platform.

Beyond execution, the platform also integrates research, insights, and investor education within a single ecosystem. Users can access curated news, participate in community discussions, and explore deeper analysis of market opportunities — connecting them to a global investing community of over 29 million users.

“We are proud to be the first licensed broker in Malaysia to introduce Hong Kong stock options, but more importantly, this launch reflects how we are rethinking the investing experience for today’s markets,” said Ivan Mok, CEO of Moomoo Malaysia. “Investors no longer operate within a single market or time zone. With Moomoo, they can trade Hong Kong stock options during the day, US stock options at night, and manage their portfolios seamlessly across both — all within one app. This is about giving investors greater flexibility, continuity, and control in how they engage global markets.”

As part of its broader growth strategy, Moomoo Malaysia continues to expand both its product capabilities and investor education initiatives, supporting a more informed and empowered investing community. The launch of Hong Kong stock options marks a significant milestone in advancing access to global markets, while raising the standard for digital brokerage offerings in Malaysia.
