Aden Financial Group, founded in 2017 by Cheng Chen, is a Hong Kong-headquartered financial technology company. It operates a cross-border, over-the-counter (OTC) electronic trading platform focused on assets denominated in Chinese renminbi (RMB). The firm has additional offices in Shenzhen, Beijing, and Chengdu and is planning expansion into Singapore and the Middle East.
The company's core offering is a technology-driven platform that provides international investors with one-stop e-trading services for investing in Greater China's markets. This service is designed for clients such as ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW) individuals, family offices, and funds. The platform covers a range of assets including bonds, derivatives, and funds, featuring services like alternative data display, price discovery, automated trade-matching, and click-to-trade functionalities.
Aden Financial holds multiple licenses from the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (HKSFC) for types 1, 2, 4, 7, and 9 regulated activities. It has also secured several cross-border investment qualifications, including Bond Connect, Swap Connect, and the Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connects. The firm's proprietary system, developed by a team with extensive fintech experience, automates the entire process from account opening and trading to risk control and settlement.
In March 2023, Aden Financial raised a multi-million dollar Series A funding round led by Eight Roads, with Lingfeng Capital also participating. This was the company's first external fundraising, with the capital intended to enhance its technological capabilities and expand its market presence.
