Julius Gate is a Swiss broker and withholds no Swedish tax. For private individuals resident in Sweden, gains on CFD trading are normally taxed as income from capital and declared on the K4 appendix, and losses are generally deductible under the Swedish Tax Agency's rules. Exactly how you are taxed depends on your circumstances and country of residence — confirm with a tax adviser or your tax authority.

Today, accounts are offered as ordinary custody accounts, where gains and losses are declared under the capital rules. The account offering is reviewed as the business develops within the EEA — if the ISK is added it will apply to the investing section (shares and ETFs), since CFDs are not eligible ISK assets. The current account forms are always shown at account opening.

With CFDs you never own the underlying share, so classic withholding tax on dividends is not deducted — instead your position is adjusted by an amount corresponding to the dividend, where a deduction corresponding to withholding tax may occur. For shares and ETFs in the Invest section, foreign withholding tax may be deducted on dividends; it can often be fully or partly credited in your Swedish tax return.

No — as a Swiss institution we do not file statements the way Swedish banks do, and you are responsible for your own tax return. Switzerland does, however, participate in the automatic exchange of information (CRS), so account details may be shared with the tax authority in your country of residence. The annual summary in the platform gives you the basis for the K4.

Julius Gate AG is supervised by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA and audited annually by an external auditor.

Segregated client funds do not form part of the company's bankruptcy estate — they are set apart for the benefit of the clients before the company's creditors are paid. Read more in the Protection of Client Funds document.
