The Interactive Brokers Stocks & Shares ISA allows investors to choose their own investments in individual shares, ETFs, mutual funds, commodities, and money market funds, offering fractional shares so investors can invest for less money – without having to buy whole units.

This isn’t a flexible ISA, meaning you can’t withdraw and redeposit in the same tax year without negatively affecting your annual ISA limit.

In-specie transfers are supported, meaning you can transfer your portfolio from another investment platform – or to another platform – as long as the same assets are available on both.

Interactive Brokers ranks joint-19th by Fi Fee for small investors (£10,000 portfolios), but fare much better at joint-11th for large portfolios (balances of £500,000). To invest, you only need a minimum lump sum deposit of £1. They charge 0.03% as an FX fee for investments in foreign currencies.

IBKR charge a minimum £3/month activity fee for the ISA, and a £3/€3 trading fee when buying shares and ETFs. Certain funds have no commission but others command a £/€4.95 trading charge. US stocks cost $0.005 per share. IBKR's complex fee structure can be confusing.
