Phillip Securities
Phillip Securities Review for traders in Singapore: MAS-regulated, 26 global exchanges via POEMS since 1975
Phillip Securities is Singapore's most comprehensive independent broker — MAS-regulated, with access to 26 exchanges globally and one of the broadest product ranges in the market. POEMS is a powerful platform for serious investors. Not affiliated with a bank, which means no banking integration but a sharper investment focus and competitive fees for active traders.
Consensus Rating
The rating evaluates 42 key factors, from regulation and costs to execution, product offering and support. The score combines analysis from multiple experts and competitor comparisons to provide an aggregated and balanced assessment. This reduces individual bias and offers a more reliable reference for broader market consensus.
Alternative Provider
AvaTrade
A solid pick for Singapore-based traders who want a well-regulated, globally established broker with real product depth. AvaTrade's 1,260+ instruments — including vanilla options and futures — TradingView integration and AvaProtect trade insurance suit technically focused, experienced traders who want more than a standard forex offering.
Phillip Securities is one of Singapore's most established independent stockbrokers, regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and part of the Phillip Capital Group. Through its POEMS (Phillip's Online Electronic Mart System) platform, it offers trading in SGX equities, ETFs, REITs, bonds, CFDs, forex, futures, US stocks, and international markets across 26 exchanges globally. Founded in 1975, Phillip Securities is one of the most comprehensive independent brokers in Southeast Asia.
