well said. But to have ibkr us you need a residency which is there, like Dubai for example, but afaik Georgia has Ibkr usa too. All asian ones ought to be ibkr hk, so will do crs unless one is resident in hong kong itself.I would switch my account to IBKR US. Maybe I’m paranoid but I don’t want one of the most corrupt countries in the world having access to how much money I have plus my address when they report it through CRS.
They have your address by other means already and theres widespread face rec but yeah, i would not wanna have crs reports sent to these asian countries where im physically present. Maybe only some uncomplicated low-ish balance is ok.
