GTN Partnership Launch Boosts Saudi Market Access

GTN partnership Launch empowers Saudi investors with global market access through Audi Capital’s advanced trading platform. Audi Capital has introduced a new digital trading platform in Saudi Arabia, allowing local investors to access global markets through a collaboration with fintech company GTN.

The platform, named “Audi Tadawul,” was officially launched on September 30 at the company’s Riyadh headquarters. It targets affluent individuals, institutions, family offices, and corporations, enabling them to trade equities, ETFs, bonds, currencies, derivatives, commodities, and alternative investments across more than 80 international markets.

Licensed by Saudi Arabia’s Capital Market Authority (CMA) since 2006, Audi Capital offers a range of services, including dealing, arranging, investment management, advisory, and custody—fully compliant with local financial regulations.

GTN Partnership Launch Marks Major Fintech Move in the Gulf

GTN provided the platform’s core infrastructure. The fintech firm, which operates as a broker-dealer in multiple countries, employs over 500 professionals across 14 markets. Its key investors include the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group, and Japan’s SBI Group, a publicly listed financial services company.

“Our partnership with Audi Capital represents a powerful step forward in democratizing access to global markets,” said Damian Bunce, CEO of GTN Middle East.

However, the new system offers real-time market data, advanced charting tools, and robust risk management features. Investors can trade seamlessly via web and mobile platforms using a single account.

In parallel with the launch, GTN announced the appointment of Jon Lester as Chief Operating Officer (COO) for the Middle East, supporting the firm’s regional and international expansion.

Aligned with Saudi Vision 2030

The launch supports Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 initiative, which aims to strengthen the financial sector, attract global investment, and position Riyadh as a leading financial hub.

Daniel Asmar, CEO of Audi Capital, commented that the new platform “empowers our clients to invest with speed, precision and confidence in both the Saudi and global financial markets across various asset classes.”

Operating in Saudi Arabia for nearly 20 years, Audi Capital emphasizes adherence to global wealth and asset management standards while ensuring compliance with domestic regulations.

Neither Audi Capital nor GTN disclosed details about pricing, minimum investment thresholds, or expected user numbers for the platform. GTN also did not confirm which of its 14 international branches will directly support the Saudi service.

The move comes amid growing competition in the Gulf’s financial market, with several global brokers expanding in the region as regulatory frameworks liberalize and investors seek diversification beyond oil-related assets.
