eToro has rolled out EUR accounts and GBP accounts to provide a more localized trading experience while minimizing fees.

Previously, you had to convert your local currency into US dollars to trade British and European equities, leading to additional conversion charges.

Key Takeaways

  • Alongside USD, you can now open a GBP and EUR eToro account to deposit and trade in the currency that suits you best.
  • You can manage your currency exposure by trading GBP and EUR-based assets without paying FX fees.
  • eToro has also expanded its investment offering with over 1,000 fresh UK stocks and 290 German stocks.

The new feature is part of eToro’s strategy to provide a trading experience optimized for local needs, and frankly, it’s been a long time coming.

Until now, eToro has been one of the few large brokers that only offer trading accounts based in USD, so this move was needed.
