So it doesn't have anything to do with changing the Market Data Subscriber Status to professional? Are you "professional" or "non-professional" under user settings / market data after the change you made?

Is this change from retail to professional for PRIIP etc. done via the account management interface?

"the protections and investor compensation rights you will lose" - I guess this is it: https://www.lynxbroker.de/media/doc/58_ENG_IBUK_MIFID_Professional_Client_Notification_and_Order_Execution_Policy_Consent.pdf I read it and don't really understand if these are important issues to consider...

How did you do that?

How can I tell (on IB's account management) if I'm still linked to IB LLC? I think I might have been migrated to IBUK.

EU. Not that it would make a difference, but I don't really get it. I thought PRIIPs is about the broker/bank marketing the product *in the EU*, not about the individuals (i.e. does PRIIPs make it illegal for EU citizens to buy non-compliant products anywhere in the world...??).

Hi everybody, Even IB LLC (not IBUK) is now implementing PRIIPs. All my positions became untradable, the only thing I'm allowed to do is to close them.
