After Saturday 22 February 2025, Macquarie Online Trading will transition to Bell Direct for retail clients and Desktop Broker for advised clients – online share trading platforms offered by Bell Financial Group (Bell).
Importantly, your online trading experience will remain largely unchanged. You will gain access to some additional digital features which will further enhance your online trading experience, including a dedicated Bell mobile app and access to trade on US markets.
