On-line Brokerage For Uk Non-res

[thairet]

Hi to non-resident brits.

Does anyone know a UK or European-based on-line brokerage catering to UK non-residents? Competitive charges, no advice, flat dealing, nominee account account required.

I am radically altering my portfolio to include a lot of individual shares (my current broker only deals in funds). Mainly UK trades, but some international too.

Thanks in advance.

You might have at look at InvestorsEurope the website is the same with .com added. They trade in a very wide range of items. FX, stocks, ETF', options, FX options etc etc. They are far from cheap however. They are OK on FX if you use MT4 but other than that they are ten times dearer than Interactive Brokers in Chicago, who I currently use. IB deal in everything, all markets etc. It depends on what you are after. The IB platform is a pain but the costs are nothing. You might try a google search for offshore brokers. There are a couple of others, Thales in Panama (expensive), and if you visit LowTax with the obligatory .com you will find a couple of other links. Depends on needs and objectives. If you are over, I think 55, you will have no tax liability in LOS and might consider using a HongKong company and bank and keeping your funds in your native currency. just keeps all at arms length. Except for what you need in LOS.

HongKong allows bearer share cos - as of course Panama and some others but the others are getting too close to thin ice in my view. I closed my Nevis co. when they sounded a bit soft with the OECD, NAFTA et al.

Interactive Brokers - for pros so can take a while to learn (and mistakes might be expensive!)

Great for equities. Not quite so great for mutual funds.

My thanks to you all. I have gone with HSBC (TER very competitive for my plans). BTW they cannot push an immovable object, but I take note.

Thanks, Thairet
