Interactive Brokers: Currency conversion warning

New terms and conditions for IBKR (in effect on 14th of July), showed up in notifications.

One of the notable things are the more specific description on when they may restrict an account, and they specifically mention “currency conversion”.
Doesn’t necessarily mean they change their day-to-day practice, but it at least hints towards a more strict regimen of disallowing people to use IBKR for currency conversions (pay in, convert, pay out)*

*but then again, where is the limit “primarily” :laughing:
