IBKR Lite is meant for retail investors. IBKR reserves the right to reject any IBKR Lite order or series of orders if IBKR determines the order(s) appear to show non-retail trading behavior. At the time an order is rejected, the client will be automatically presented the option to resubmit the rejected order on a Fixed commission basis. For more information, see IBKR Lite Disclaimers
Accounts with a NAV of less than USD 100,000 (or equivalent) will be paid at a rate proportional to accounts with a NAV of USD 100,000 (or equivalent) or more. The proportion is determined by the ratio of the account's NAV to USD 100,000 (or equivalent). This does not apply to currencies with negative interest rates, where the negative rate applied will be the same regardless of account size. Please note that the interest paid for IBKR Lite is lower than IBKR Pro. See our Interest Rates for details.
See our Margin Rates for details.
IBKR Lite is available to Singapore retail investors who hold individual, joint, or trust accounts. These accounts can be cash or margin.
1. Standalone trust accounts with legal entity trustees are not eligible for IBKR Lite
Regular trading hours for IBKR Lite and IBKR Pro are 09:30 ET – 16:00 ET.
