Stocks — 28 brokers
Stocks are partial ownership in a company. Core building block for Dutch investors — via AFM-regulated brokers with access to AEX, Euronext, NYSE and NASDAQ.
What are Stocks?
A stock represents ownership in a company. As a shareholder you participate in profits (dividends) and price appreciation — but also in losses. Dutch investors access AEX and Euronext Amsterdam as well as NYSE and NASDAQ. Mind costs: brokers charge a fixed amount, a percentage or both per order, sometimes with external costs. Foreign-currency stocks often carry FX conversion fees too. Compare the price lists. Tax treatment falls under Box 3 wealth tax; dividends received are subject to 15% withholding tax, which can be offset in your tax return. Day traders focus on bid-ask spread and liquidity: high-volume stocks have narrow spreads and fast order execution.
