Unicaja Broker combines listed investment access with the bank’s existing securities and digital-banking relationship. Its main pricing distinction is the age of the broker subscription: a low first-year domestic dealing charge can rise sharply in year two. Custody and other transaction costs remain separate throughout.[1][2]

Other bank dealing charges
Annual advertised custody
The bank calculates those custody percentages on the value of deposited securities. Confirm the class basis, billing frequency and applicable tax in the personal agreement. The public page also reproduces external market fees and tax examples; those can change independently of bank brokerage and must be checked for the intended order.[2]
Bank-commission illustrations
These examples exclude custody, currency conversion, venue charges and taxes. The initial year runs from subscribing to the service, rather than restarting for each investment.[2]
Order tools and portfolio records
Sections ↑Published digital tools
| Tool | Use |
|---|---|
| Portfolio analytics | Performance, unrealised gains/losses, movements and accumulated returns.Source 1 |
| Instrument research | Technical and fundamental information, analyst forecasts, risk information and news.Source 1 |
| Practice portfolios | Virtual portfolios for testing investment ideas.Source 1 |
| Monitoring | Favourites, market charts and security search.Source 1 |
The custody contract uses digital banking for notices and offers free paper correspondence to clients who are not digital users or who request it in writing. A stop order can limit exposure only when market conditions permit execution; its trigger price is not a guaranteed fill.[3]
Transfers and closing the account
Sections ↑Exit and transfer terms
| Item | Published condition |
|---|---|
| Customer closure | At least 15 days’ notice under the standard custody contract.Source 3 |
| Bank closure | Normally at least one month; specified non-payment, credit and legal-compliance circumstances permit immediate termination.Source 3 |
| Pending transactions | Existing operations continue under their applicable terms; accrued fees remain payable.Source 3 |
| Securities transfer | Request through Unicaja or the receiving firm; timing depends on the transferable asset.Source 3 |
Published maximum outgoing-transfer rates
The maximum-tariff brochure is effective from 21 July 2021 and remains linked by the bank. It is a ceiling schedule, not the advertised online custody rate above or an individually agreed quote. Transfer taxes and external settlement/registry costs can be additional.[4]
Custody arrangements
Sections ↑Unicaja’s product page identifies Cecabank as the holder of foreign omnibus accounts and lists Citibank, Euroclear Bank and Clearstream Banking in the custody chain. The bank says customer instruments are distinguished from the third party’s own assets. This arrangement does not remove investment risk.[1]

Assessment
Sections ↑Model at least two years of ownership before judging the opening offer. A €6,000 domestic trade moves from €7 to €21 in bank brokerage after year one, and custody can dominate the cost of a portfolio that is rarely traded. The published tools are useful, but the personal custody agreement and current external charges remain essential inputs to the total-cost comparison.
