The launch expands STARTRADER's product offering, potentially increasing trading volumes and client engagement, which could positively impact its revenue. It also provides retail investors with access to Chinese AI companies like Z.ai and Minimax, potentially boosting liquidity and interest in those stocks.
On August 13, 2026, STARTRADER, a global multi-asset broker headquartered in Dubai, announced the launch of 45 new 24/7 Stock and ETF CFDs, available from Monday through Sunday, 00:00-24:00 (GMT+3 platform time). The new instruments span seven market themes: Chinese AI, AI infrastructure, technology, crypto and digital assets, energy, other equities, and ETFs. Among the new additions are Z.ai and Minimax, two Hong Kong-listed Chinese AI companies that debuted on HKEX in January 2026. Z.ai develops large language models for enterprise and developer markets, while Minimax focuses on artificial general intelligence (AGI) and counts Alibaba, Tencent, and Hillhouse Investment among its investors. STARTRADER's CEO, Peter Karsten, stated that the launch reflects a deliberate choice to keep pace with global market interest across regions, sectors, and timeframes. The expansion builds on STARTRADER's existing 24/7 product range, aiming to provide eligible clients with broader access to global markets. The company operates through entities regulated by authorities including CMA, ASIC, FSCA, FSA, and FSC.
