SBI Securities Introduces OTC CFD Service for Diverse Investments
In a groundbreaking announcement, SBI Securities, based in Minato Ward, Tokyo, has revealed that it will launch its new Over-The-Counter (OTC) Contracts for Difference (CFD) service on August 25, 2025. This initiative marks a significant milestone as it will be the first network securities firm to offer trading in cryptocurrencies, stock indices, and commodities all within a single account.
Having introduced exchange CFDs (Click Stock 365) in January 2017, SBI Securities has successfully captured approximately 51.0% of the trading volume market share, underscoring its strong support from customers. The forthcoming OTC CFD service aims to expand investment opportunities for clients, thereby contributing to asset formation for a diverse range of investors.
To celebrate the launch of the OTC CFD service, SBI Securities will hold three promotional campaigns starting from August 18, 2025. These include a repost campaign on X (formerly Twitter), an account opening campaign, and a cashback campaign starting from the official launch date.
