US stock access allows international investors to trade shares listed on NYSE and NASDAQ - the world's two largest equity exchanges, home to Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and thousands of other global companies. Not all non-US brokers provide direct access to US equities; some route through depository receipts or CFDs instead of real shares. Brokers offering genuine share ownership of US-listed stocks include DEGIRO, Interactive Brokers, Trading 212, and eToro.

Danish-licensed bank with the deepest multi-asset coverage we cover, premium SaxoTraderGO/PRO platforms, and tiered pricing for active traders.
