Company Information

Get to know 8 Securities (acquired by SoFi)

Originally founded in 2012 as 8 Securities, the company was one of Asia's early fintech pioneers, launching one of the first robo-advisors in the region and later introducing zero-commission stock trading. Its mission was to make investing simple and accessible for a new generation of investors. In April 2020, 8 Securities was acquired by the major US-based digital personal finance company, SoFi (Social Finance, Inc.), as a strategic entry into the Asian market. Following the acquisition, the company was fully rebranded to SoFi Hong Kong and now operates as its regional hub, continuing to offer trading in US, Hong Kong, and Chinese A-shares, alongside automated investing services.

License

A Grade License

Issued by globally renowned regulators, these licenses ensure the highest trader protection through strict compliance, fund segregation, insurance, and regular audits. Dispute resolution and adherence to AML/CTF standards further enhance security.

B Grade License

Granted by respected regional regulators, these licenses offer robust safety measures such as fund segregation, financial reporting, and compensation schemes. Though slightly less strict than Tier 1, they provide dependable regional protection.

C Grade License

Issued by regulators in emerging markets, these licenses offer basic protections such as minimum capital requirements and AML policies. Oversight is less stringent, so traders should exercise caution and verify safety measures.

D Grade License

From jurisdictions with minimal oversight, these licenses often lack key protections like fund segregation and insurance. While attractive for operational flexibility, they pose higher risks to traders.
