Mainly drawn to the flexibility and accessibility of online forex platforms.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe aim to engage everyone who is interested in forex trading be it on a part time basis or as an alternative source of income. We are committed to transparency and dedicated to financial education, as we are poised to become a significant player in the region\u2019s financial markets,\u201d said Manzi.<\/p>\n<p>The regulatory environment for forex trading in Kenya has been evolving to accommodate the growing interest in the market.<\/p>\n<p>He says that with the Capital Market Authority\u2019s regulatory frameworks, individuals and companies enjoy protection, transparency and fairness when trading. The authority oversees trading in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at an official launch of the firm\u2019s forex trading office, the firm\u2019s CEO noted that there has been an increased emphasis on financial education in Kenya, which has empowered individuals to explore alternative investment opportunities, including forex trading.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;More people are becoming aware of the potential benefits and risks associated with forex trading,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>David Manzi said the idea was motivated by the need to address financial hardships being faced by majority of Kenyans keen on alternative sources of income to provide for themselves and their families.<\/p>\n<p>The FX Champions framework will also be structured to provide all the resources required to evolve into an expert trader \u2013 ranging from core competencies of understanding macro market forces and the basics of technical analysis to trading psychology to more complex FX trading concepts and strategies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe platform also provides a solid grounding in the understanding of risk management and the responsible use of leverage \u2013 all provided by a totally independent training facility not aligned with any brokerage and without the requirement to invest real funds,\u201d added Manzi.<\/p>\n<p>The foreign exchange market is a global decentralised or over-the-counter market for the trading of currencies.<\/p>\n<p>This market determines foreign exchange rates for every currency. It includes all aspects of buying, selling and exchanging currencies at current or determined prices.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
