Traditional or On-line Stockbroker?
If you wish to deal in shares or investment products such as exchange traded funds and investment companies you will need to open an account with a stockbroker. If you are more likely to invest through Irish unit-linked funds, which many Irish people do, then you will not need a stockbroking account. Whether you opt to open an account with a traditional stockbroker or an on-line stockbroker is entirely up to you. Traditional brokers charge higher commissions but they offer many additional services. With on-line stockbrokers the cost of dealing is substantially lower but it is a no frills, no advice service. Our mentoring services, which are available to anyone who has completed the 1-day seminar, train you in on-line dealing.
