As a trader focused on cost transparency and minimizing unexpected charges, swap fees—or overnight financing rates—are always a point of scrutiny for me. With Morrison, one immediate challenge is that their fee structure, including specific information about swap rates, is not clearly articulated on their public materials. Compared to other well-known brokers that display their overnight rates or at least offer clear schedules and calculators, this lack of visibility makes Morrison less appealing for anyone conducting a like-for-like cost assessment. My experience has taught me that opaque fee arrangements can sometimes mask higher charges or lead to surprises that erode profitability over the long term. Even though Morrison is regulated by ASIC and offers a strong operational history in the Australian market, I approach such limited transparency with caution. This is heightened by the context that Morrison does not actually offer forex, indices, or commodities products—instruments where swap rates are typically most relevant—so for traders like myself seeking to manage ongoing holding costs, Morrison would simply not meet my requirements. For clients trading equities or related instruments through Morrison, the type of financing charges you'll encounter will be different from classic swap fees seen in leveraged forex trading. Given the restricted scope and unclear cost disclosures, I consistently prioritize brokers who make all trading fees—including overnight costs—public and easy to understand. For me, trust is tied directly to fee transparency, and on this front, Morrison falls short compared to other industry leaders.
