Account Services

All clients can open a standard trading account with Meta Securities, including Professional/Institutional Clients (subject to qualification), who are assigned dedicated account managers. Meta Securities has established secure login access with multi-layer authentication to protect client accounts against unauthorised access and to comply with the SFC's regulatory requirements for maintaining client accounts.

Account creation is done in a highly regulated environment under SFC Rule 4.3.2, which requires the client to be verified and confirmed as being suitable for trading products based on the client's risk profile. This process includes a residence check on the client's current residence and a suitability assessment of the products that the client intends to trade.

Cost Structure, Spreads and Commissions

Based on publicly available data, it appears that Meta Securities does not charge direct trading commissions to clients. Instead, Meta Securities has a pricing structure consisting of different types of transaction costs based on:

1. Transaction costs calculated on the basis of the spread.

2. Possible overnight financing costs (swap fees) that occur depending on the products being traded by the client;

3. Standard service fees charged to clients for certain types of transactions or funding methods (e.g., credit/debit card funding).

As with all Hong Kong-regulated brokers, Meta Securities is required to be transparent about the pricing it charges clients, and all clients have access to real-time pricing information through the Meta Securities trading platform.

Leverage and Risk Management Services

Meta Securities' maximum leverage is no greater than 30:1, consistent with the SFC's regulatory limit on leverage for retail clients.

The processing time for deposits is immediate for credit cards and e-wallets, and for international bank transfers, it is generally 1 to 5 business days.

The withdrawals must remain compliant with Economic and Financial Crime legislation, and therefore, the client must withdraw funds using his or her original funding method.
