LONGPORT Whale, a provider of advanced securities trading infrastructure, has launched its services in Malaysia, marking its debut at the Bursa Malaysia Stockbroking Trade Fair 2026. This move aligns with Malaysia’s Capital Market Masterplan 2026–2030 (CMP4), which aims to modernise local brokerages by enhancing investor experience, regulatory compliance, and operational resilience.
Malaysian brokerages face the challenge of updating legacy systems to meet the demands of digital-native investors, heightened cybersecurity standards, and multi-market expansion. Zhong Hua, CEO of LONGPORT Whale, emphasised the importance of evolving trading infrastructure, stating, “Core trading infrastructure must support continuous evolution — in investor experience, compliance, and AI readiness — without adding unnecessary complexity.”
LONGPORT Whale’s platform, trusted by over 100 institutional clients in Asia, is built on a cloud-native microservices architecture. It offers a robust trading experience, system resilience, global market connectivity, and an API-first architecture for AI adoption. The platform is designed to meet the needs of institutional clients with high system performance, real-time risk management, and low latency.
The company’s expansion into Malaysia draws on its experience in Hong Kong SAR and Singapore, where it serves online brokers and traditional banking firms. LONGPORT Whale aims to collaborate with local industry participants, contributing to the broader conversation on responsible modernisation under CMP4.
