FBS pros and cons
FBS has low stock and stock index CFD fees and charges no inactivity fee. The account opening process is fast and simple, while deposits and withdrawals are free of charge and user-friendly. The customer service and education materials are excellent.
On the negative side, FBS has a limited product portfolio covering only CFDs. There are only a few account base currencies, and there is no investor protection for non-EU clients.
