What a broker does

A broker provides the trading platform, prices, leverage and the account that holds your money. Brokers earn from spreads, commissions and other fees.

What to check

  • Regulation: which regulator licenses the entity you will actually be a client of.
  • Costs: spreads, commissions, swaps and deposit or withdrawal fees.
  • Deposits and withdrawals: which methods work from Tanzania and how long withdrawals take.
  • Platforms and the quality of customer support.
