Investors in Iraq will find here a reviewed selection of stock and ETF brokers, each evaluated for regulatory status, fees, trading platforms, and market access. Iraq does not currently have a specified national securities regulator or formal investor protection scheme recorded in public databases, so local oversight for stock trading is limited. As a result, most Iraq-based investors access equities through international brokers, which may be regulated elsewhere but do not provide country-specific safeguards or compensation schemes. It is important for residents to assess carefully the regulatory credentials and protections of any broker before opening an account.
