Wan Lung Securities

Wan Lung Securities Ltd. (commonly referred to as Wan Lung Securities) is a Hong Kong-based stockbroker that primarily serves individual and corporate clients in Hong Kong and internationally. According to its website, the firm was registered in November 2016, although our records indicate a registration date of September 3, 2021. The company operates under the official domain hkwls.com and lists its registered address at FT 1712, 17/F Shun Tak Centre West, 168-200 Connaught Road Central, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong.

The broker positions itself as a comprehensive securities firm, offering a range of services including securities trading, investment advisory, asset management, and wealth management. Its stated mission is to combine professional expertise with technology to serve clients' financial needs. However, it is important to note that while the broker claims to be regulated by the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) of Hong Kong, we have not been able to independently verify this license through public registers. Our records show no confirmed regulators on file.

Wan Lung Securities claims on its website to hold Type 1 (dealing in securities) and Type 4 (advising on securities) licenses from the SFC. These license types would permit the firm to conduct securities trading and provide investment advice. The company's site explicitly states it is a 'comprehensive licensed company regulated by the Securities and Futures Commission of Hong Kong.'

However, our cross-check against official SFC records did not confirm the presence of an active license for Wan Lung Securities Ltd. as of our review date. FXCanary's internal risk assessment has assigned a scam risk score of 49 out of 100, indicating a 'Guarded' risk level. This score reflects the uncertainty surrounding its regulatory status and the absence of independent user reviews. Traders are advised to exercise caution and conduct their own due diligence before engaging with this broker.

The broker's product offering centers on Hong Kong stock market trading. Services include securities trading (both computer-based and mobile), IPO subscription and financing, and securities investment consulting. The firm also provides asset management and wealth management solutions tailored to individual and corporate clients.

From the available information, Wan Lung Securities does not appear to offer forex, CFDs, or other leveraged derivative products. Its focus remains on traditional equity brokerage and related advisory services. Clients can trade Hong Kong-listed stocks, and the broker supports various order types through its trading platforms.

Wan Lung Securities emphasizes flexible trading methods, allowing clients to trade via computer, mobile phone, or through a broker. The website mentions a 'computer-base and mobile-' solution, though specific platform names or details are not provided. For IPO subscriptions, clients can subscribe electronically or via paper forms.

The broker also offers financial analysis services, stating it is dedicated to 'tailoring the right financial solutions for your financial and investment needs.' Additional tools include a news subscription service and a fee schedule for market data from provider '捷利港信香港有限公司' (likely a Hong Kong data vendor).

The broker offers personal, Hong Kong corporate, and overseas corporate account types. Account opening requires submission of identification documents and proof of address, with additional corporate documents for company accounts. The minimum deposit is not explicitly stated on the website, but the fee schedule mentions minimum charges for various services.

Funding is accepted via bank transfer or cheque deposit to a Bank of China (Hong Kong) account. The broker does not mention e-wallets, credit cards, or cryptocurrency funding. Withdrawals are processed by cheque only, made payable to the account holder. Third-party payments are explicitly not accepted, which aligns with anti-money laundering standards.

Wan Lung Securities provides customer support via a hotline (4000-888-393, 37008990, 37008988) and email (cs@hkwls.com). The website offers downloadable forms for account changes, fund withdrawal, stock withdrawal, and password reissue. The broker's contact page also lists the hotline and email prominently.

There is no mention of live chat or 24/7 support hours. The site is available in Chinese (traditional and simplified) and English, indicating an intent to serve both local and international clients. However, the physical address is in Hong Kong, and all documentation points to a Hong Kong-based operation.
