On January 25, 2022, Prime Executions, a subsidiary of Freedom Holding, based in New York City, received Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA“) approval for expansion into capital markets and investment banking activities in the US. Thus, Prime Executions is now authorized to provide underwriting services, retail financial securities brokerage, investment research, investment counseling, securities trading, investment banking and consumer banking.
