As one can find in Interactive Brokers' knowledge base you can only name a beneficiary if you are operating a US-based account. How come there is no transfer on death option for the rest?
As a non-US resident, how can I be sure that when I die my relatives will inherit my portfolio without jumping through hoops or having to be in a joint account with me?
Sure, I can include them in my will, but that will not be as seamless a transition (might incur additional taxes or probate/legal claims).
