Kafi Securities has announced its financial results for the first six months of the year, reporting a pre-tax profit of 145 billion VND, a 53% increase. This growth is primarily attributed to the company's strategic focus on the retail segment and investment in digital technology.
The revenue breakdown reveals balanced growth across multiple areas. Brokerage revenue rose 59% due to a significant increase in the number of accounts and trading volume. Revenue from margin lending surged 283% due to higher demand from individual investors and an optimized financial ecosystem. Proprietary trading also saw a 154% increase, reflecting Kafi's adaptability and flexible investment strategy amidst market fluctuations.

During the same period, the number of individual clients increased by 170% compared to the start of the year, the highest increase to date.

The company is aiming to redefine the investment experience for this client group through digital products, fast transactions, and personalized support.
According to the plan approved by the General Meeting of Shareholders, Kafi will increase its charter capital to 7.5 trillion VND in Quarter III of 2025. This new capital will be used to expand investment in technology, human resources, and product ecosystem development.
Following the capital increase, the company will list 750 million shares on UPCoM, taking a step toward its goal of achieving a 1 billion USD market capitalization in the next few years. Kafi's leadership considers this a strategic move in its roadmap towards going public and increasing transparency in the capital market.
