Trading Castle Hosts Chinese New Year Gala in Kuala Lumpur, Announces ASEAN & Asia Records Listing

Kuala Lumpur, Feb 28, 2026 — Financial education institution Trading Castle recently hosted its 2026 Chinese New Year Gala Dinner in Kuala Lumpur, bringing together around 700 attendees, including mentors, coaching teams, students, and family members, according to the organisation.

The event served as an annual gathering for participants within the education ecosystem of the International Financial Consultant Certified Institute (IFCCI), where the academy reviewed its educational development during 2025 and shared plans for upcoming training initiatives.

According to the organisation, the gathering also included an official recognition ceremony by ASEAN Records and Asia Records.

ASEAN & Asia Records Listing

During the event, Trading Castle announced that it had been listed by both ASEAN Records and Asia Records under the category “Highest Verified Single-Year Total Student Trading Research Performance Recorded by a Single Academy.”

According to the organisations statement, cumulative student trading research activity generated within its educational programmes in 2025 exceeded US$50 million.

The institution said the figure represents aggregated outcomes from research-based trading exercises conducted within its structured training framework, which combines research-focused coursework, one-to-one mentoring, and analytical tools used for market analysis training.

The organisation noted that the reported figure reflects educational research activity rather than investment returns.

Education Framework

Trading Castle operates within the education ecosystem of IFCCI and positions its programmes around structured financial market education, according to the organisation.

Its curriculum is described as being built around several components, including research-driven coursework, structured mentoring systems, and analytical training designed to help students understand market structure, execution discipline, and risk awareness.

According to the organisation, the broader objective of the programme is to support financial literacy development and help participants build analytical and risk-management skills when studying financial markets.

2026 Education Plans

During the event, the academy also presented its education development plans for 2026.

According to the organisation, future initiatives may include the expansion of its Diploma in Financial Market Analysis (DFMA) programme, the development of additional certification pathways, and further integration of analytical tools within its training framework.

The institution said these initiatives are intended to strengthen structured financial education programmes within its learning ecosystem.

Industry Context

Malaysia has seen increasing participation in retail trading and growing interest in financial literacy in recent years. As a result, private financial education providers offering market-related training programmes have become more visible across the region.

Recognitions issued by organisations such as ASEAN Records and Asia Records generally document achievements within defined categories and are separate from regulatory licensing or financial market authorisation.
