Trade Republic, a BaFin-regulated neobroker based in Germany, was established in 2015. It provides an all-in-one platform for banking, investing, and saving. Users can trade bonds, cryptos, ETFs, stocks with cheap costs, earn interest on cash, and benefit from in-app help and tools. Its license status, though, is marked “Exceeded”, suggesting perhaps action outside the authorized range of its regulatory license.
