Abstract:AIMS Group obtains ASIC Prime Brokerage Licence, boosting global trading services and strengthening compliance in financial markets.

AIMS Group, a global financial broker, has officially transitioned into a Prime Brokerage after being granted an Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) Prime Brokerage Licence. The approval, effective from September 2025, marks a milestone in the companys expansion into institutional-level trading solutions.
This advancement comes after AIMS successful acquisition of an ASIC Market Maker Licence on 19 September 2024. The new licence (No. 526125) allows the broker to enhance its business model, strengthen compliance protocols, and deliver advanced global financial broker services across Asia, Europe, and beyond.
The ASIC Prime Brokerage Licence provides AIMS with greater regulatory recognition, reflecting its focus on financial market governance and transparent trading practices. In alignment with international trading compliance, the licence enables AIMS to offer broader prime brokerage services in Asia and to clients worldwide.

As part of the transition, AIMSs previous ASIC Licence (No. 430091) was officially cancelled on 11 August 2025. The broker continues to operate under additional regional approvals, including:
These licences, together with ASIC oversight, position AIMS as a trusted ASIC-regulated broker offering client protection in trading through strict compliance with financial market laws.
Commenting on this development, Aaron Chang, CEO of AIMS Group, stated, “Securing the new ASIC Licence reflects our unwavering dedication to compliance, innovation, and client trust. This achievement reinforces our mission to provide safe, transparent, and trusted trading opportunities for clients across the globe.”
By aligning with global regulatory compliance standards, AIMS aims to expand its strategic global partnerships while improving institutional trading solutions for investors in traditional and emerging markets.
With a footprint across Australia, Dubai, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Vietnam, Japan, Korea, the UK, Spain, and Latin America, AIMS Group continues to grow as a leading provider of cross-border financial services. Its ASIC Prime Brokerage Licence now reinforces its role in delivering competitive and compliant solutions for clients seeking international trading opportunities.
