Rates subject to change on a daily basis. Rates correct as at 17/09/2026.
You may earn interest on positive settled (uninvested) cash balances.
The interest you earn depends on:
If your NAV is above USD 100,000 (or equivalent), then interest will be paid at the rates stated above.
If you have a NAV of less than USD 100,000 (or an equivalent value in other currencies) you will receive a lower annual rate, this rate increases the closer your NAV is to USD 100,000. No interest is paid on:
This results in a blended interest rate based on the portion of your balance above and below the threshold.
NAV is aggregated across currencies, but interest is calculated separately per currency. Interactive Brokers uses a mix of reference rates including bank deposit rates, Fed Funds, and dynamic interbank rates.
