Easy to use app and great interest on a variety of currencies. I’m very glad, that there’s the option to have local tax advantaged accounts as well. Not many companies do that. Also available Blackrock liquidity funds give a little more interest. Big plus on showing fees clearly. Reviewed on: 14th March 2024
