Interactive Brokers (IBKR) does not offer the option to open sub-accounts for LLCs under personal accounts. Each entity, whether it's a personal account or a LLC, requires a separate and distinct account with IBKR. This means that you cannot simply add your LLC as a sub-account to your existing personal account.
However, IBKR does provide alternative solutions to help manage multiple accounts efficiently:
- Separate Accounts: You will need to open a separate account for your LLC, which will be distinct from your personal account.
- Account Linking: While sub-accounts are not available, IBKR offers account linking options. This feature allows you to link your personal account and your LLC account for easier management.
- Benefits of account linking include:
- Simplified login process: You may be able to access both accounts with a single login.
- Streamlined account oversight: Account linking can make it easier to monitor and manage multiple accounts.

Please Note
- Even with account linking, your personal account and LLC account will remain separate entities with their own unique account numbers, statements, and tax reporting.
