OTCBB: SEGB

VANCOUVER, Jan 31, 2002 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- SE
Global Equities Corp. (OTCBB: SEGB), a provider of technology
and financial resources for international investors, announces that it
has entered into an agreement with Hani Securities (HK) Ltd., of
Hong Kong to offer SE Global's direct-access trading platform, SE
Global Trade(TM) to local investors. With this agreement, Hani
Securities becomes the first Hong Kong brokerage firm to obtain
regulatory approval to offer local retail investors a direct-access
trading platform to trade U.S. equities.
Under the terms of the agreement, Hani Securities will act as the
introducing broker for Hong Kong-based clients wishing to invest in
U.S. equities, who will open accounts directly with U.S.-registered
broker dealer Global-American Investments, Inc. ("GAI"), SE
Global's subsidiary. SE Global Trade(TM) is a sophisticated order
entry management program that routes customer trades through
GAI, a U.S. licensed securities broker-dealer.

"With the recent rebound of U.S. markets, many local investors are
eager to diversify and gain exposure to U.S. markets," said
Anthony Yeung, Director of Hani Securities. "With its advanced
features, the SE Global Trade(TM) platform represents a superior
trading solution for our Hong Kong-based clients and provides Hani
Securities with a competitive advantage in the local market.
Streaming Level II quotes, technical analysis tools and rapid
executions give Hong Kong investors the advantage of tracking and
trading U.S. equities in real time."

In preparation for the launch of SE Global Trade(TM), Hani
Securities is planning a comprehensive marketing campaign in the
Hong Kong investment community. Included in the campaign will be
a new website under the Hani Securities brand, a mass email
campaign, Internet marketing and a press campaign targeted at
local media. Additionally, Hani Securities will deliver marketing
seminars and offer live trading at its office in Hong Kong during U.S.
market hours.

"Establishing this relationship with Hani Securities at this time
demonstrates to us continued interest within Asia for greater
access to U.S. stock markets," said Toby Chu, president and CEO
of SE Global. "Hani Securities is a distinguished brokerage firm
whose substantial retail client base will now have direct access to
U.S equities, futures and options - unprecedented in the Hong Kong
retail market. To SE Global, this agreement strengthens our
presence in the Asia region, which is projected to experience a
39% compound annual growth rate in online trading accounts
through 2005."(x)
