Alpari (UK) Limited (“Alpari (UK)”), one of the fastest-growing providers of foreign exchange (“Forex”, “FX”), contracts for difference (“CFDs”) and precious metals online trading services, today announces that the company has acquired CMS Japan K.K.; renamed Alpari (Japan). The new office will be an independent entity providing trading services in Forex, CFDs and precious metals.
Andrey Vedikhin, CEO of Alpari (UK), comments, “We are very excited about having a local Alpari team in Japan. Forex is much more widely understood there than in most other places around the world, with people from all different backgrounds trading currencies on a regular basis. It’s a competitive arena for brokers but as one of the leading MetaTrader specialists and with our successful global business model we have something unique to offer to our clients in Japan. The Alpari (Japan) team is confident that it will soon become the leading MetaTrader broker in the country.”
Combined, Alpari (UK) and the new Alpari team in Japan will hit the ground running, as each has extensive experience in the Japanese Forex market. Until December 2010, Alpari (UK) provided a full suite of trading services to Japanese residents. As one of the leading MetaTrader brokers the Alpari companies are ideally positioned to capitalise on the enormous interest Japanese traders have in this highly advanced trading platform.
Mushegh Tovmasyan, Global Head of Sales at Alpari (UK), adds, “Alpari (Japan) is another milestone in the rapid global expansion of the group of Alpari companies in Asia and globally.
