OANDA review: Share CFDs added to Singapore trading platform
OANDA has expanded its product offering in Singapore with the launch of share Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on U.S. and European listed equities, strengthening its position in the region’s increasingly competitive online trading market. The move gives Singapore-based clients access to CFDs on individual company shares, including high-profile names such as Nvidia, Microsoft, Alphabet, Tesla and Amazon.

The expansion forms part of a broader platform update that introduces the OANDA One sub-account, allowing eligible clients to trade via the latest MetaTrader 5 (MT5) platform. With the update, OANDA completes its multi-asset CFD suite in Singapore, enabling retail traders to access indices, forex, commodities, metals, bonds and now equities through a single trading environment.
Broader market access and platform integration
By adding share CFDs, OANDA is responding to growing demand among retail traders for exposure to global equity markets without direct ownership of the underlying assets. The newly introduced instruments cover major markets in the United States, the United Kingdom and Europe, providing Singaporean clients with broader diversification opportunities.
“The rising popularity of CFDs highlights how much traders value the ability to capitalise on market movements without the need for direct asset ownership,” said Philip Waters, OANDA’s Head of Asia Pacific and Emerging Markets. “By bringing this broad range of share CFDs to our award-winning platform, we’re providing our Singaporean users with enhanced flexibility and deeper diversification. Our priority remains delivering a seamless, high-quality experience through both our desktop and mobile applications.”
The full range of tradable instruments is available through a single connection across the OANDA app, as well as TradingView and MetaTrader 4, allowing traders to choose platforms that best suit their strategies and workflows.
Strengthening regional presence
OANDA’s Singapore expansion comes as the broker continues to invest in platform capabilities and client education across Asia-Pacific. Founded in 1996, OANDA operates regulated entities in major financial centres worldwide and offers multi-asset CFD trading alongside currency data and analytics.
The company’s commitment to service quality was recently recognised in Investment Trends’ Singapore 2025 Leverage Trading Report, where OANDA was named a winner in the Educational Materials/Programs and Customer Service categories.
As global equity markets continue to attract retail interest, OANDA’s expanded share CFD offering positions the broker to capture rising demand in Singapore while reinforcing its broader strategy of platform innovation and market accessibility.
Previously, OANDA opened access for Australian investors to CFDs on U.S. and European shares.
