This honor consolidated Futu’s leading role in the fintech field in Hong Kong as well as recognized Money Plus’s wealth management services.

Since its founding, Futu has been committed to empowering finance with cutting-edge technology to drive the development and innovation of the industry.

By the fourth quarter of 2023, Money Plus’s AUM exceeded HK$57.5 billion, up 82.3% YoY, with its business expanding rapidly and products further diversified.

With strong technological strength and user centricity, Money Plus works to upgrade product features, including pre-ordering, fund comparison, regular savings plans (RSP), fund portfolios, etc. In Hong Kong, Futu’s Cash Plus has become a popular choice for investors who want to grow their wealth. Its SmartSave feature auto-redeems investors’ money market fund (MMF) positions to trade stocks. Its low thresholds, stable returns, and flexibility are favored by investors. As of the fourth quarter of 2023, the number of Hong Kong MMF holders had increased by 34.2% YoY, and fund AUM had increased by nearly 80% YoY to HK$16.8 billion. In response to the demand in the Hong Kong market, the Company expanded its product range to cover nine major types of structured notes and became the first brokerage in Hong Kong to enable decumulator trading.

We are committed to providing diverse investment products and portfolios for our clients. Rather than simply focusing on product promotion, we take a step further to find the right products for each investor. By offering multiple fund selection and analysis tools and a tactical asset allocation strategy, we help clients make investing decisions that better suit their investing goals and risk preferences. We are honored to be awarded Best Digital Financial Service. It not only recognizes Money Plus’s past achievements but also demands better development in the future.
