One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.

A Brokerage for All Investors

Interactive Brokers (IBKR) is a multinational brokerage firm established in 1978. With its origins in electronic trading, the firm has expanded to offer a wide range of financial services to individual and institutional clients around the world.

Origins as a Market Maker

Interactive Brokers (IBKR) was founded by Thomas Peterffy in 1978. Initially, the firm began its journey as a market maker, a crucial player that provides liquidity in financial markets. Peterffy was a pioneer in the early adoption of computerized trading, utilizing automated systems at a time when most trading was manually executed. By the mid-1980s, IBKR transitioned from trading on the floor to the screen, being one of the first to use computer-generated fair value sheets. Over the years, the firm shifted its focus from market-making to brokerage, capitalizing on its cutting-edge technology to offer advanced trading platforms. This transition allowed IBKR to serve a broader clientele, from individual traders to large institutions, giving them access to global markets at competitive rates.
