The story

onvista is a German financial portal operated by onvista media GmbH, offering market data, research and comparison tools for securities. The company was acquired by comdirect (Commerzbank) and operates as a subsidiary. Brokerage/order routing is handled by the user's own broker — onvista itself positions as an information portal rather than a licensed broker.
