What Interactive Brokers does

Interactive Brokers is an automated global broker. It holds and services accounts for hedge funds, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, registered investment advisors, proprietary trading groups, introducing brokers and individual investors. Customers trade stocks, options, futures, currencies, bonds, mutual funds, precious metals and forecast contracts on electronic exchanges around the world, and can trade some cryptocurrencies through outside providers. The company earns money from its brokerage and market making activities, and its revenue depends on trading volume and on interest rate levels. It built its own software to automate broker-dealer work, and says this makes it one of the lowest cost providers of broker services. Its roots are in a market making business that its chairman, Thomas Peterffy, started on the American Stock Exchange in 1977.

Biggest risks, in its own words

  • Revenue and profit that swing with trading volume and interest rates and are hard to predict.
  • Losses from its market making activities, including from failures of its pricing model.
  • Losses from clearing and execution, or from counterparties that fail to pay.
  • Intense competition in direct market access and brokerage.
