Australia? I read the news your entering that market. What can we expect? As will this allow UK investors access to Australian exchanges?

And following on - any chance that New Zealand will follow Australia (assuming it would be run out of Perth - ** typo I meant Brisbane)? Is there any rough timeline for when Australia launch is planned for?

Also, many are excited for auto-invest features. Can you share anything on when you expect to launch this functionality?

Finally, If possible can you briefly talk us through the enforced FX capacity cut, reasons for it and how the team were able to conceive and implement a solution over the following weekend so successfully. Kudos.

Based on the job ads, it will be run out of Brisbane.

Yep 100% - total non-thinking typo, had seen the ad and where the Freetrade Engineer was moving back to, the brain just shut down for a sec - from a former Australia & NZ Regional Manager thatā€™s quite a shocking error!! :man_facepalming:

Guys and girls on Android,

Due to uncertainty about the compliance of the stream outside the Clubhouse app, will not be sharing the link publicly. Send me a DM if needed. Best doing it before the event begins
