Based on my experience reviewing banks and forex brokers, I looked closely at CommBank’s account options and features. CommBank is one of Australia’s oldest and most established financial institutions, holding solid regulation under ASIC, and it focuses primarily on offering comprehensive banking, investment, and wealth management services. Its investment products cover Australian equities, ETFs, superannuation, and term deposits, accessed through its proprietary platforms like CommSec and NetBank. For traders specifically seeking a swap-free or Islamic account—typically designed to avoid interest in accordance with Shariah law—I did not find any evidence or mention of such an account type in CommBank’s available materials. Neither the publicly described account offerings nor their fee structures refer to Islamic or swap-free features. In my view, this is not unusual for a traditional commercial bank primarily centered on domestic retail, business, and investment banking rather than specialized margin forex trading, where swap-free accounts are more routinely provided. To ensure both compliance and a low-risk approach for myself and others, I would always recommend directly contacting CommBank if you require detailed clarification about Islamic-compliant products, as information can sometimes change. However, from what is currently published, CommBank does not seem to support swap-free or Islamic trading accounts for traders. As always, I would urge caution and careful due diligence if Shariah compliance is a critical requirement for your trading activities.
