How do I invest in the stock market if I am in Mexico?

Let’s start with the practicalities; first find an online broker that can accept you.

In other words, one that can accept you being in Mexico. You don’t have to just focus on Mexican or American brokers.

In fact as an expat, it is often best to focus on third country brokers, that specialise in portable solutions for expats.

Also remember to factor in:

• Are you American? If so, it isn’t easy anymore to invest as an expat American. It is very possible but more complicated than for other nationalities.
• Do you want an advisor or too DIY? Vanguard and other firms have done studies that have shown that advisors can deliver superior returns.
• How much you have to invest and for how long - this will affect how much risk you should take.
• What you want to achieve by investing - for example retirement or another goal.

These things will affect which brokers you will want to pick. The biggest mistakes people make is focusing on an overly local or home country solution.

Many countries now have a “ties test” when it comes to taxes. Take the UK as an expat.

It used to be that if you spent less than 90 days in the UK, you are automatically considered tax non-resident.

Now, there is a sliding scale from 9 to 90 days. In other words the more ties you have (property, business and yes pensions) you could be considered tax resident.

ARE WE A GOOD MATCH + FAQS When I was a kid, I often heard the expression “there is no point in trying to put round pegs in square holes”. It was only years later that I finally realised that there is no point trying to match with an unsuitable person in business. As I explained in this article, when I started out, I wasn’t that selective. Times have changed. I am now the most viewed writer on Quora.com with over 222.2 million views in the last few years, and receive over 8,000,000 monthly readers across numerous social media platforms and news publications. This means that I can now be quite selective about who I take on. What do I expect from clients and what should you expect from me? Trustworthy and trusting – you would expect me to be trustworthy so I would naturally expect the same thing from you. Moreover, I really don’t have the time or energy to try to convince a cynical brain to be less untrusting and cynical. Loves to be efficient – time is money for you and me. I don’t want to waste your time, and I want to save you time by doing things online in a speedy way. By the same token, I like clients to take decisive actions. As the great football manager Sir Alex Ferguson said, if a decision is to be made, it is better to be made as quickly as possible, assuming you have enough basic information to make a decision. Procrastination wastes everybody’s time and energy, and I don’t need new clients to feed myself! So I have a “two-week rule”. If somebody can’t make a decision either way by then I walk away. Meet the account minimums – You have at least $2,000 a month ($24,000 a year) or $100,000 as a lump sum to invest to meet the gold level, which means dealing with me directly. If you have less you can apply for the silver or bronze level services, which in effect means dealing with my team or automated solutions, depending on how much money you have to invest. Over time my minimums (at least to deal with me personally) will likely continue to increase due to rising demand. A long-term relationship – not get rich quick. 92.6% of my clients have given me referrals in the last decade. It is in both of our interests to have a lasting relationship, and for both sides to be happy. Traceability and transparency – What is safer ? Uber and other taxi apps where everything is traceable, or a normal taxi? The traditional business world often falls down on the “his word vs my word” fallacy, where there is no trace due to an in-person meeting. That is one reason why online has taken off. With investing too, it is important for you, and me, to have traceability and transparency. So in a way I probably expect the same as you expect – to treat me in the same way as you want to be treated. Like what you are reading? Apply now using this form!
