Building a global presence: The story behind ACCM

Founded in Sydney in 2007, AC Capital Market has evolved from a local institutional provider into a premier global CFD broker operating across Australia, Europe, Africa, and Asia. Reaching its latest milestone, the company officially launched a new strategic support office in Singapore, reinforcing its long-term commitment to the Asia-Pacific region. 

ACCM’s story spans nearly two decades of deliberate, sustainable growth. Rather than pursuing rapid expansion for its own sake, the firm’s trajectory focuses on steady operational scaling: securing multi-jurisdictional regulation, establishing on-the-ground regional teams, delivering market insights, and supporting local communities. 

Foundations in Sydney (2007–2015)

AC Capital Market was founded in Sydney, Australia, in March 2007. Just one month later, the firm secured its regulatory authorization from the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC, Licence No. 308159) and began providing liquidity and asset management services to institutional clients.

From the start, the leadership prioritized core stability over speed. Building deep market access and operational capacity allowed the business to extend its institutional services into Europe by early 2008.

Industry accolades soon followed, with Australian awards for order execution in 2008 and further recognition for business growth, transparency, and service excellence over the following years.

A Legacy of Excellence: Continuous Industry Accolades (2016–2022)

As global client demand expanded, ACCM’s relentless focus on user experience, cutting-edge technology, and trust earned prestigious international awards:

  • 2017: Recognized globally for mobile innovation, winning Best Trading Mobile App and Best Trading Performance Broker.
  • 2019: Honored as The Best CFD Broker (World Forex Award). 
  • 2020: Named The Best Online Forex Broker (World Forex Award). In May 2020, ACCM also formed its dedicated Research and Analysis Department to provide daily market intelligence. 
  • 2021: Swept major regional and global honors, including The Most Trusted Forex Broker (World Forex Award - Asia), Most Innovative Forex Broker (Global Brands Magazine Awards - Asia), and Best Forex Broker (Global). 
  • 2022: Earned licensing from the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC, Licence No. 700597) in August and expanded retail operations across key African markets in September. 

Alongside commercial growth, the firm deepened community involvement through partnerships with local Australian sports, esports initiatives, and the Australian Cancer Research Foundation.

Accelerating Regional Growth (2023–2024)

Between 2023 and 2024, the company transitioned into a major multi-regional broker:

  • 2023: Expanded presence into Vietnam, explored selective international brand awareness opportunities around Italy’s Serie A football league, and launched the Executive Dialogue interview series featuring industry leaders.  
  • December 2023: The firm relocated and significantly expanded its Sydney presence into a larger global headquarters in Chatswood to accommodate its growing operational needs.
  • 2024: Hosted regional leadership events, launched live educational market broadcasts, opened an office in Thailand, and obtained licensing from the Seychelles Financial Services Authority (FSA, Licence No. SD198).
  • Late 2024: Secured authorization from South Africa’s Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA, Licence No. 54284) and established an office in Nigeria.

During this period of growth, the company maintained its commitment to social responsibility, providing essential relief and reconstruction supplies to flood-affected communities in Vietnam's Red River region.

Rebranding to ACCM and Global Partnerships

The year 2025 marked a transformational chapter. Following an initial operational presence in Singapore and winning Best CFD Broker Australia 2025 (International Business Magazine), AC Capital Market officially rebranded as ACCM in June 2025.

The new ACCM brand unified the company's regional operations under one clear, modern global identity. Local presence expanded rapidly across Southeast Asia and Australia, with new office openings in the Philippines (August 2025) and Melbourne (November 2025).

In February 2026, ACCM announced a major partnership with the Prima Pramac Yamaha MotoGP team, bringing the brand to a worldwide sports audience centered on precision, team performance, and endurance.

Anchoring the Future in Singapore

In July 2026, ACCM opened its new office in Singapore, marking its deepest commitment yet to the Asia-Pacific market.

As one of the world's primary financial centers, Singapore serves as an ideal hub to support ACCM's regional growth, foster closer relationships with local partners, and better serve regional traders. From its origins in Sydney in 2007 to its global identity today, ACCM continues its focus on building strong local connections backed by global regulatory standards.
