Interactive Brokers, the online broker and market maker in futures, options and foreign exchange, has been named Best International Stockbroker by Price by readers of Investors' Chronicle magazine. Responding to news of the award was Gerald Perez, managing director of Interactive Brokers' UK office, who represented the brokerage at an award ceremony in London. "High-speed, high-execution technology is only part of the mix for today's professional traders. A competitive, transparent cost structure is absolutely crucial for traders looking to execute at high speed and high volume," said Perez. "The readers of Investors' Chronicle represent some of the brightest lights and most astute trading minds in the industry today, making their vote of confidence very gratifying indeed."

We believe that no matter what asset class you're trading, no matter where in the world you may be, trading with the efficiency of a single multi-product account is that much more enhanced by the knowledge that orders are being routed and executed at the best price available at that moment, and at very low commissions," Perez added.
