Interactive Brokers Enables Broader Global Diversification Within Swedish ISK Accounts

Adds Global Derivatives and Credit Capabilities to Sweden’s Tax-Efficient ISK

GREENWICH, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Interactive Brokers (Nasdaq: IBKR), an automated global broker, today announced that Swedish investors can now trade global futures and options as well as access portfolio lending within their ISK (Investeringssparkonto) accounts, enabling broader international diversification and greater portfolio flexibility.

Interactive Brokers enables clients to trade options and futures across a broad range of international exchanges, unlike some Swedish platforms which only offer limited derivatives trading within ISK accounts – typically focused on Nordic-listed instruments.

“Swedish investors should not have to choose between tax efficiency and global market access,” said Kevin Keller, Chief Executive Officer of Interactive Brokers Ireland Limited. “By bringing global derivatives and portfolio lending capabilities into the ISK structure, we are enabling Swedish investors to diversify internationally, hedge strategically, and manage portfolios with greater precision.”

Traditionally associated with straightforward equity and ETF investing, the ISK structure combines tax efficiency with no contribution limits, making it one of the most flexible investment vehicles available to Swedish investors. Interactive Brokers now extends that flexibility with institutional-grade derivatives and global market access.

Interactive Brokers’ portfolio lending facility operates within the ISK regulatory framework and provides additional capital flexibility.

Key Features of the ISK Account through Interactive Brokers:

• Trade global stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, options and futures across global markets
• Access international derivatives exchanges to enable diversification
• Apply for a portfolio loan with competitive, tiered credit rates as low as 2.335%
• No account opening, maintenance or transfer fees
• Trade with powerful platforms on mobile, web, and desktop

Existing IBKR clients can add an ISK in minutes and fund it in seconds. For additional information, please visit: ISK Accounts
