Online brokerage Longbridge opens Singapore office at Asia Square Tower 2


[SINGAPORE] Fintech firm Longbridge Group officially opened its new Singapore office at Asia Square Tower 2 on Friday (Jun 19), the first of two facilities that it is opening in the Republic this year.

The opening of the second location is planned for the fourth quarter of 2026. These will add to its offices in Hong Kong, Japan, New Zealand and the US.

“Singapore provides the ideal platform from which Longbridge can deliver (its) services to investors across Asia and beyond,” said the group in a statement on Friday.

Its second facility in Singapore, named Longbridge Cafe, was originally set to open at Guoco Tower in the third quarter of 2026, according to a May announcement.

“The cafe will give the team a place to meet investors face to face; to understand who they are… what kind of support they need at each stage of their journey,” said Longbridge then.

Its playbook seems to echo that of its competitor Moomoo, which also has a corporate office in Marina Bay and has three retail stores across Singapore.

Longbridge operates its retail brokerage platform, institutional trading solutions arm Longport Whale and artificial intelligence-native financial infrastructure platform LongbridgeAI.

The brokerage earlier this month said its global user base increased by 120 per cent in 2025 from the previous year, but did not disclose its number of users in Singapore.

This regional push comes just weeks after a major regulatory clampdown in China.

Fintech funding in the six largest Asean economies has fallen by less than 1 per cent for the first three quarters of 2024, a significant improvement from the year-ago period.

In late May, Hong Kong-registered Longbridge, New Zealand-registered Tiger Brokers and Futu, which owns Moomoo, were fined more than US$330 million in total for operating cross-border securities businesses and serving mainland Chinese investors without required licences.
