Banking Without Borders · Stocks & Shares ISAs: XTB vs Trading 212 vs IG vs eToro · 22 Jul 2026 podcast

Um, and yeah, not sure if that's really needed.

My opinion, the do-it-yourself route is probably the most sustainable route for most people.

Yeah, they don't have to be in my opinion.

I think they can just go ahead and invest as diversified as possible, ideally, into the global economy by picking an an ETF on the MSCI world or the FTSE All World, uh which are indices that cover, you know, many different economies and then statistically speaking they're likely to succeed in the long term.

They the only provider charge a platform fee in our comparison, the only one that charges per trade, at least if you um invest within reasonable amounts of money.

And also don't like the fact that they charge a point seven percent FX fee, which is yeah, among the most expensive in our comparison.

It's on par with IG IG.

And that's just not ideal.

If you can avoid that, better do it.

Also they don't pay any interest on idle cash, which is

I mean, maybe not a deal breaker for some people, but uh it's not ideal either.

I think one of the reasons why I like XTV so much is because they give you four percent on idle cash within your stocks and shares ISA.

And you've you've mentioned in the past that that's a great idea to circumvent this um this reason um recent uh yeah.

Yeah, another reason to pick X T B or trading two on two are fractional shares.

Fractional shares, if you don't know it already, um basically allows you to buy parts of a share.

Quick example, let's say the share you want to buy is a hundred pounds but you only have ten pounds to invest, you'd be buying ten percent of that share.

X T B and trading two on two, they allow for that.

That's great for people that invest small amounts, maybe regularly.

IG and eToro they don't, so that could

Disqualify them for some people.
