Summary
Interactive Brokers has opened access to the Bucharest Stock Exchange and let eligible non-resident clients trade Brazilian futures on B3, extending its platform into Romanian equities and Brazilian derivatives.
More than 170 global markets were already on the platform, and the additions strengthen IBKR’s pitch as a low-cost, one-stop gateway for investors seeking broader geographic and product diversification.
The expansion supports IBKR’s core growth case by potentially lifting account growth, client engagement, commissions and interest revenue, though it also adds regulatory and operational complexity across more jurisdictions.
By 2029, the company’s narrative points to $10.2 billion in revenue and $1.8 billion in earnings, while more cautious analyst views cited in the report see about $9.9 billion revenue and $1.4 billion earnings.
