From the personal correspondence of reader Daniel with BPI Trade:
Dear BPI Securities Corporation Client,
Greetings from BPI Trade!

- Robust system for executing and confirming customers' orders to ensure efficient order execution and accuracy.
- Complete process flow from order taking to settlement, so that you can conveniently pay for stock purchases and accept proceeds of sale as BPI Trade is linked to BPI ExpressOnline which allows direct access to your BPI Account.
- More tools in making well informed investment decisions such as historical charts and fundamental company and economic research.
- Modern portfolio management system to help you monitor and have better control over your equity investments.
BPI Securities Corporation
Market reports, finally!--this is something some readers were complaining about a while back.
But what's really exciting about this is the linkage with BPI ExpressOnline. It will make things significantly more convenient, particularly for us BPI account holders.
And I have to agree with Anonymous, this platform upgrade is well timed for the upcoming introduction of ETFs.
Would this be enough reason for you to stay with the platform, BPI Trade users? COL and other online broker clients, would this make you want to shift platforms?
For me, it's definitely a step in the right direction. Let's just wait and see--and cross our fingers--that they do it right.
Thanks for sharing this Daniel!
