Get to know virtual brokers

Virtual Brokers was a division of BBS Securities Inc., launched in 2009. It established itself as a low-cost, deep-discount online broker in Canada, catering to active traders and self-directed investors seeking direct market access. In 2017, the firm was acquired by CI Financial Corp. and was subsequently rebranded as CI Direct Trading. In a further industry consolidation, CI's brokerage businesses, including CI Direct Trading, were acquired by Aviso Wealth in 2023 and merged into its Qtrade Direct Investing platform, effectively ending the Virtual Brokers brand lineage.

License

A Grade License

Issued by globally renowned regulators, these licenses ensure the highest trader protection through strict compliance, fund segregation, insurance, and regular audits. Dispute resolution and adherence to AML/CTF standards further enhance security.

B Grade License

Granted by respected regional regulators, these licenses offer robust safety measures such as fund segregation, financial reporting, and compensation schemes. Though slightly less strict than Tier 1, they provide dependable regional protection.

C Grade License

Issued by regulators in emerging markets, these licenses offer basic protections such as minimum capital requirements and AML policies. Oversight is less stringent, so traders should exercise caution and verify safety measures.

D Grade License

From jurisdictions with minimal oversight, these licenses often lack key protections like fund segregation and insurance. While attractive for operational flexibility, they pose higher risks to traders.
