In another bid to grow its business globally, online trading platform Robinhood has revealed its intention to launch its stock exchange application in the United Kingdom. The move aims to provide U.K. investors with access to the U.S. stock market and U.S. dollars.
Early Access for Interested Users
In an interview with Bloomberg, Robinhood co-founder and CEO Vladimir Tenev disclosed that the app has already initiated a waitlist for early access to interested individuals. Tenev further stated that Robinhood plans to progressively open its platform to all users in the U.K. by early 2024.
Tenev expressed his vision for Robinhood to become the leading destination for investing in U.S. stocks and U.S. dollars within the U.K. market, as per Cointelegraph. The platform's launch will allow British investors to trade 6,000 U.S. stocks. Furthermore, Robinhood intends to introduce its popular 24-hour trading feature to U.K. users.
Global Ambitions
With this foray into the U.K. market, Robinhood aims to achieve its long-standing mission of becoming a global company. Tenev emphasized that this aspiration has been present since the company's inception, driven by his immigrant background and the vision to make their services available to individuals worldwide.
This is not Robinhood's first attempt to enter the U.K. market. After securing approval from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), a prominent British regulator, the company initially planned to launch its trading app in the U.K. in 2019. However, in 2020, Robinhood announced a delay in its U.K. launch and put its global expansion plans on hold indefinitely.
By reintroducing itself to the U.K. market, Robinhood looks to capitalize on its current success and popularity gained in the U.S. The app's implementation of the 24-hour trading feature and its offerings of a wide range of U.S. stocks aim to attract U.K. investors seeking comprehensive access to the American stock market.
Regardless of their background, Tenev's vision of making financial services available to individuals worldwide remains at the heart of Robinhood's strategic goals. With the relaunch of its U.K. initiative, Robinhood reaffirms its commitment to democratizing investing and expanding its global reach.
