New alternative investment vehicles are next

Midas founder and CEO Egem Eraslan said, “We are on our way to becoming the only platform for all investment needs of our users. Today, we are working to be the platform where you can trade shares in the most effortless and advantageous way. The year 2022 passed very quickly for Midas, one of the most important milestones of its growth journey is that Borsa Istanbul shares now come to Midas alongside the US stock markets. You can invest in both exchanges very easily and quickly. In the coming period, we will continue to move towards our goal of being the only platform for all your investment needs by adding alternative investment tools such as crypto money, precious metals and mutual funds to our platform.
