As fintech innovation reshapes Africa’s financial landscape, Exness strengthens its investment in the region, combining global expertise with local talent to serve a new generation of traders.
CAPE TOWN, South Africa, December 11, 2025 —
Exness (www.Exness.com), one of the world’s largest multi-asset brokers, has officially opened its new office in Cape Town, marking a major milestone in its long-term commitment to traders and partners across Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
As fintech innovation continues to accelerate across the region, South Africa has emerged as a natural hub for financial technology and digital inclusion. With one of the most advanced financial systems on the continent and a thriving ecosystem of start-ups and skilled professionals, Cape Town offers a unique blend of innovation and opportunity, making it an ideal regional base for Exness.
The new state-of-the-art office will serve as the centre of Exness’ operations in South Africa and across the wider SSA region. It will be staffed by local professionals who bring regional expertise and market insights, ensuring clients benefit from locally informed support combined with global service standards.
Exness co-founder and CEO Petr Valov said the opening represents a significant step in the company’s regional strategy.
“The opening of our Cape Town office marks a new chapter for Exness, one that is focused on innovation and regional growth. We see immense potential in Sub-Saharan Africa, and our investment reflects both our confidence in the region’s future and in the talent driving that growth.”
The inauguration event brought together Exness executives, local partners, and members of the media to mark the milestone. Activities included a ribbon-cutting ceremony, addresses from senior management, and a reception with the regional team, highlighting Exness’ deepening roots in the African market.
Celebrations continued with the Creators (EX)perience at Killarney International Raceway’s Joubert Pits, where Exness hosted an adrenaline-driven event reflecting the brand’s values of precision and performance. The programme featured a supercar showcase, Formula 1-style pit stop challenges, and a high-intensity racing simulator competition that tested participants’ reflexes in a virtual tournament.
Paul Margarites, Regional Commercial Director at Exness, said the new office goes beyond physical expansion.
“By building a strong local presence, we are bringing our global expertise closer to our traders. This office is more than a workspace; it represents our long-term commitment to the region.”
By combining advanced trading infrastructure with local expertise, Exness aims to empower traders with improved access, confidence, and competitive trading conditions. Its growing Sub-Saharan Africa operations are supported by a Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) licence in South Africa and a Capital Markets Authority (CMA) licence in Kenya, reinforcing the company’s focus on responsible, transparent, and regulated operations across the continent.
