ATFX Connect Partners with the JSE to Bring JSE-Listed CFDs to Institutional Clients

ATFX Connect, the institutional arm of the ATFX Group, has announced a strategic partnership with the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) to offer direct access to JSE-listed contracts for difference (CFDs) to its B2B and institutional clients across South Africa and the broader continent.

The agreement is designed to give brokers, asset managers, and fintech firms institutional-grade access to JSE CFD products while deepening local market exposure for South African financial service providers. ATFX Connect said the partnership enhances its execution and distribution capabilities and strengthens the product suite available to both retail and professional traders.

Dany Mawas, CEO of ATFX Africa and co-founder of L7 Prime, described the move as a major step in the group's African expansion strategy. “Working alongside the JSE and a couple of local South African banks allows us to deliver stronger, localised solutions to our partners and B2B clients while reinforcing our long-term commitment to the African market,” he said.

ATFX Connect has been building out its presence in Africa as part of a broader global scaling effort, focusing on localised products and partnerships with established financial institutions. The firm provides aggregated liquidity in spot FX, NDFs, indices, commodities, and precious metals to hedge funds, banks, asset managers, family offices, and other brokers.

ATFX Connect is a trading name of AT Global Markets (UK) Limited (FCA-regulated), AT Global Markets (Australia) Pty Limited (ASIC-regulated), and AT Global Financial Services (HK) Limited (SFC-regulated).
