Samsung Securities launches foreigner integrated account service with IBKR
Samsung Securities said on Monday it is launching a “foreigner integrated account” service with Interactive Brokers that allows foreign investors to trade South Korean stocks through local securities firms. The scheme supports overseas investors who do not open accounts directly with domestic brokers. Samsung Securities said foreign participation in South Korean shares has faced higher barriers, including complex account-opening procedures. It said the service was promoted in line with government policies to improve access.
