Protections can vary depending on the products you use, which company within our group provides them, and whether you are a retail or professional client. Saxo is subject to applicable regulatory requirements, including rules on client funds, client assets, and reporting. 

For clients who have an account with Saxo Bank A/S, cash deposits and certain assets may be covered by the Danish Guarantee Fund, subject to eligibility and scheme limits. These protections do not cover investment losses or losses resulting from market movements.

Retail clients are covered by additional investor-protection requirements under EU financial regulation, which are designed to support informed decision-making. These include measures relating to disclosures, appropriateness assessments, and product governance. Professional clients are generally covered by fewer of these retail-specific protections.

That depends on the account type you open.

For an individual account, it’s quick and easy to sign up online—just have the below documents ready. 

  1. Your national ID number from the country where you hold citizenship.
  2. Your tax ID number from your country of residence.
  3. A document as proof of identity (e.g., a passport, ID card, driver’s licence) and a selfie.
  4. A document as proof of residence (one that shows your home address, such as a residence permit, utility bill, or bank statement).

It depends on the type of account you’re opening. Here’s how long it takes to open some of our most popular account types:

  • Individual account: Most sign-ups are approved digitally within a few minutes. However, since we cannot compromise on security checks, the process can sometimes take longer. If all documents you provided meet requirements, we’ll process your application within 2 working days.
  • Corporate account: If you provide clear copies of all required documents, we’ll approve your account in about 1 week.
