Buy or sell stocks with your mobile phone? Another “first” signed by Keytrade Bank Publish time: 24/06/2009 14:00 Rubric: ECONOMY Company: KEYTRADE BANK IPTC: economy, business and finance / media-science and technology / technology (general)-economy, business and finance / market and exchange-economy, business and finance / financial and business service Keytrade Bank, first Belgian player to launch «Mobile Banking & Trading ».

Recent market volatility highlighted the need to size opportunities or cut losses in time. Confronted to a sudden variation in market courses, the landlines of traditional bankers are immediately saturated. Even active customers of online brokers are not permanently glued to their computer screens.

In this context, Keytrade Bank brings another innovation on the Belgian market with the launch of the first “mobile site” that integrates the most commonly used banking and trading functions. Among others, it is easy to buy and sell stocks on 18 financial markets, or even use it for the usual banking operations such as a bank transfer or get a detailed overview of your accounts.
Paul van Diepen, CTO : « the Keytrade Bank client will not be thrown in unknown territories: he will access his account through an optimized interface and will proceed in the exact same way than through the web for his login or to confirm his transactions – which also guarantees the security of the operations.”

Practically, the client is not even required to subscribe to an additional service, he just needs to type “keytradebank.com” on the browser of his mobile phone. The site is particularly user-friendly for “smartphones » such as BlackBerry, iPhone, HTC, ...

Thierry Ternier CEO: "The increasing penetration of mobile and never-seen-before market volatility has made this type of application absolutely required for a large number of investors. Moreover, we differentiate once more significantly vis-à-vis our competitors in the brokerage world as well as in conventional banking."

Kris Vervaet, VP Marketing & Channel Mgt of Belgacom: ‘As the leader in the commercialization of Mobile Internet, Proximus can only congratulate Keytrade Bank for its dynamism in developing innovating solutions for their clients that are looking for instantaneity and mobility.’

Simon Berckmans, Head of Mobile Wholesale & Partnerships of Mobistar: ‘Mobistar is delighted to see Belgian companies investing in developments that will bring a great added value to the users of our network, particularly private investors and professional users.’

The development of the mobile offering, in particular by extending financial products “tradable” through the site (such as derivatives that are not yet available), is part of the development plans of Keytrade Bank.
