DFSA-regulated Henyep Investment Bank Limited became known as Henyep Capital Markets (DIFC) Ltd as part of its plans for growth in the region, particularly within the UAE.
The latest move means that European clients can now experience HYCM’s full product offering including forex, commodities and equities as well as positioning the 40 year old Group on a renewed growth path as it seeks to extend its global footprint.
HYCM has also announced the introduction of a new logo to reflect these developments which will replace the existing one and will appear on the Group’s website as well as all its advertising and promotional materials from April 2017.
