For trading firms, LLCs, and IBCs operating internationally

Structuring Considerations

Different corporate structures suit different situations. An LLC is often the simpler route for a single trading operation with one or a small number of owners, particularly where the owners want pass through tax treatment in their home jurisdiction. An IBC, International Business Company, is more commonly used where the business genuinely operates across multiple jurisdictions, or where a holding structure separates trading operations from other business lines. Neither is inherently better; the right choice depends on where you and your business are tax resident, what your accountant recommends, and how you plan to move profits out of the entity. We are glad to explain how each structure interacts with our account features, but structuring decisions themselves should be made with your own legal and tax advisors.

Getting Onboarded

Corporate accounts call for full entity documentation, disclosure of beneficial ownership, and a clear picture of your business activity and expected account usage. See our KYC/AML & Source of Funds page for details.
