Whether it is domestic futures or international futures, as long as it is a regular futures company, it can inquire about its supervision at the local CSRC where the varieties that can be traded belong.

-If you want to trade international futures, you must open an external futures account:

I. Personal account of overseas futures

1. I went to Hong Kong Futures Company and opened an external personal futures account.

2. Find a domestic futures company with a branch in Hong Kong to open an overseas futures personal account.

At present, it is the safest, most formal and most reliable for these two types of futures companies in China to trade Hang Seng Index futures through personal accounts, because these two types of futures companies can directly find their own regulatory licenses on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Up to now, no futures company has closed down, run away or made no money. Investors are advised to give priority.

Two. Overseas futures sub-account

At present, some domestic platforms can open an account online, upload photos of ID cards and bank cards, and open an account in five minutes. But these platforms only open sub-accounts of external futures. However, investors should learn how to distinguish the authenticity of these platforms and see if they can ask the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission to find out the licenses and provide futures settlement forms.

I have worked in different external futures platforms and have some experience and knowledge. If you have more questions about Hang Seng Index or related platforms, you can trust me privately. Welcome to communicate.
