Interactive Brokers
Interactive Brokers has been operating since 1978 as top US-based discount broker. The broker is regulated by the UK’s FCA and the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Interactive Brokers has many asset classes to offer. It also offers a couple of more rare assets, like warrants and structured products.
Interactive Brokers suggests two trading platforms, one WebTrader, and another on their own the Client Portal, which has great functionality as well. Moreover, the broker has low trading fees, a wide range of products, and many great instruments. However, the platform Client Portal has a difficult desktop for perception. There also is a high inactivity fee. Still, though, we can recommend the broker to those who find the features suitable for them.
