The Globe and Mail reports in its Monday edition that Scotia iTrade
gets a B
grade in the newspaper's annual ranking of digital brokerages. The Globe's Rob Carrick writes that Scotia iTrade has gone full app -- the long-awaited, much-needed website redesign borrows heavily from the open layout used for mobile phone and tablet apps. Mature investors may take a while to appreciate what Scotia's radical redesign, but young investors will feel right at home. Carried over are perks like a strong research library and a list of 120-plus exchange-traded funds that can be traded commission-free. It is an offset to the standard stock and ETF commission of $9.99.
Evaluations in the Globe digital brokerage ranking are based on more than 100 factors, broken down into five categories: convenience and security, cost, the investing experience, tools, and services for retirees. TD Direct Investing took The Globe's top honours.
