The retail investment landscape in the region is in focus today as we look at how industry players are tapping growing numbers of retail investors during the pandemic. 

Our guest for today is from financial services firm CMC Markets, which serves over 80,000 clients globally in areas such as equity, commodities and indices trading. 

The firm is present in a number of geographies including Singapore, Sydney, Toronto and across Europe. 

More recently, the London-listed firm has launched a new online and mobile trading platform called CMC Invest in Singapore as part of efforts to diversify and expand its geographical reach. 

But how exactly does this platform help bring the company closer to the retail investing community? And on what basis will CMC Invest compete with other industry players? 

Also, how does the firm intends to retain retail investors after the pandemic boom?  

On Under the Radar, Drive Time’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian sat down with Christopher Forbes, Head of CMC Invest Singapore for more.
