IBKR Lite in Singapore with Zero Commissions on US Stocks

Interactive Brokers Group has announced the launch of its IBKR Lite pricing plan in Singapore, offering investors a commission-free way to trade US stocks and ETFs around the clock.

The new IBKR Lite program provides Singaporean investors with transparent, low-cost access to the US markets by eliminating commissions, platform fees, settlement fees, and account minimums. This move builds on the firm’s existing IBKR Pro plan, which leverages IB SmartRouting℠ to optimize trade execution. Clients can easily switch between Lite and Pro to match their trading strategies, with both plans granting access to Interactive Brokers’ full suite of platforms, tools, and global markets.

“We’re pleased to bring zero-commission US stock trading to investors in Singapore,” said Yujun Lin, CEO of Interactive Brokers Singapore. “With IBKR Lite, clients benefit from cost-effective access to the US markets, with zero commissions and no platform or settlement fees. This launch reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering value and a powerful trading experience to our clients worldwide.”
