Interactive Brokers Introduces Low, Simple Stock Pricing in Europe to Attract Individual Investors

Interactive Brokers Group (Nasdaq:IBKR), a global brokerage firm, announces a new simple flat fee structure for stock trading in Europe, effective today.

Interactive Brokers has long been recognized as the broker of choice for sophisticated investors, active traders, and institutions. Low fees, leading technologies, and expansive product scope are just a few of the features guiding their choice of IBKR.

IBKR is focusing on building its European customer base by introducing a new simplified pricing structure for stocks that is tailored to individual investor priorities. The first markets to benefit from this new fee model are the exchanges of Western Europe. We will release a similarly competitive pricing structure for Central European and Nordic markets soon.

Standard pricing will be a flat 3 EUR/GBP for trades up to 6,000 EUR/GBP in value.

Larger trades will be commissioned at just 0.05% of trade value.

The new commission rates are available with IB SmartRouting℠, which optimizes the execution quality for clients by accessing the many exchanges and trading venues across the continent.

IBKR prioritizes both institutional and individual investors. This new fixed pricing structure is offered alongside our current tiered pricing and we invite our customers to review both options to choose the one that best fits their investing objectives.
