Account opening for Canadians

Hi,

Any plan to expand Alpaca for Canadians ? I would be interesting to know the timeline otherwise I might have to search for another broker :frowning_face:

Thank you in advance

Can someone explain to me why Canada is not supported? What is so special about Canada ???

@manfredf The Canadian Securities Administrators requires any brokerage firm doing business in Canada to be registered in Canada and Alpaca doesn’t currently have that registration.

In Canada, anyone in the business of trading securities or advising clients on securities must be registered with the securities regulator in each province or territory where they do business, unless an exemption applies.
