IBKR is required to provide EEA and UK retail customers with Key Information Documents (KID) for certain financial instruments.
Relevant products include ETFs, Futures, Options, Warrants, Structured Products, CFDs and other OTC products. Funds include both UCITS and non-UCITS funds available to retail investors.
Generally KIDs must be provided in an official language of the country in which a client is resident.
However, clients of IBKR have agreed to receive communications in English, and therefore if a KID is available in English all EEA and UK clients can trade the product regardless of their country of residence.
In cases where a KID is not available in English, IBKR additionally supports other languages as follows:
Language | Can be traded by residents or citizens* of |
German | Germany, Austria, Belgium, Luxembourg and Liechtenstein |
French | France, Belgium and Luxembourg |
Dutch | the Netherlands and Belgium |
Italian | Italy |
Spanish | Spain |
*regardless of country of residence
