Hi guys,

I am a partially happy customer of IBKR Australia. What really bogs me is the lack of access to the luxurious 14+ currencies cash portfolio available to Euro, UK and USA customers. Yes, I am aware there are several ways to trade currencies with synthetic products, but I would love to have the full-fledged multi-currency account, for both trading and conversion purposes.

I happened to be a UK resident from 2013 till 2017, hence I do have a bank account there, and I will move back in March. For the time being, I was wondering if there is any workaround to have an account with IBKR UK. For example, I was considering registering a UK business and open a business account with IBKR UK.

Is there any recommended strategy?

thanks
