The rapidly growing of the forex market in Africa has attracted Pepperstone to penetrate the Kenyan market. Interestingly, this new development coincides with their 10th year anniversary.

Pepperstone, a global online forex and CFD broker, has announced its entry into the Kenyan forex market. The Kenyan Capital Markets Authority has acquired a non-traded foreign broker license from the Pepperstone group subsidiary, Pepperstone Markets Kenya Ltd. Pepperstone offers more than 170 tradable instruments to more than 89,000 clients worldwide via MT4, MT5, and cTrader platforms.

Sahil Patel, CEO of Pepperstone Kenya, responded that his company is thrilled to introduce world-class trading, operating, and pricing platforms to Kenya's vibrant retail and forex market. Having worked with international banks for the past decade, he feels delighted to be able to offer retail investors the same level of complexity in terms of product price analysis and operation as the commercial division of the bank.
