Offshore Stockbroking

Buy and sell shares on the world’s leading stock exchanges

Now your money can travel the world. Trade shares and other securities in the US, UK,  Europe, Canada and Australia easily.

Access the world’s leading exchanges

Over 45 000. That’s how many worldwide-listed companies you have access to through our locally-based service. This includes sectors poorly represented on the JSE. You can buy US shares and bonds directly, as well as shares listed in all of the main Western European exchanges, Canada and Australia. 

Diversify your portfolio

There are many reasons why investing in foreign-listed firms is a great idea. It’s an excellent hedge against rand volatility. What’s more, offshore markets are often subject to different market forces than their domestic South African equivalents, so you can often see value creation abroad even when local markets are under pressure.

A simple dealing process

Trading is as simple as calling your investment manager and placing your order. Unfortunately we are not  in a position to offer advice on offshore securities. Trading begins as soon as funds are available via the usual mechanisms of asset swaps or the offshore allowance, which we can facilitate on your behalf.

Offshore stockbroking is for you if you want to:
