Jefferies to launch new multi-asset trading platform

Named Tradu, the new platform has been “built by traders for traders,” according to the business; launch is expected next month.

Stratos Group – a wholly owned subsidiary of Jefferies – has today unveiled its new multi-asset trading platform, Tradu, set to launch in December. 

The aim of the platform is to streamline multi-asset trading, reducing the number of accounts and apps used across asset classes by “providing clients with an intuitive and advanced platform with a superior trading experience across each of the tradable markets, all from one portal that can be accessed via a mobile app and web platforms”.

The sophisticated offering is aimed at active traders and investors and offers thousands of tradable assets. The platform operates across: listed equities, commodities, cryptocurrencies, CFDs, forex, treasuries and indices.

The platform combines deep market access, technology, institutional-level pricing and a high level of trading expertise.

Following the December launch, the platform will be rolled out globally over the next few months, the business has confirmed.

In addition to its multi-asset solution, Tradu also offers an ‘eWallet’ which allows clients the benefits of a virtual and physical debit card and allows for easy transfers between trading and eWallet accounts.

Brendan Callan, chief executive of Tradu, said: “Tradu has been built by traders for traders to provide them with the platform they deserve – one that offers access to a variety of markets, all from one seriously powerful, sleek app. Too much of the retail trading industry has focused on gimmicky features, trend-chasing and gamification.

“Instead, we are laser focused on serving traders’ needs, offering aggressively competitive pricing, professional trading tools and a client service team that strives for excellence. Tradu is launching the next evolution of mobile trading to UK clients and will soon be expanding globally.”
