Interest rates are at historic lows right now. It's hard to find brokerage company that will yield even 1% on account's cash balance. Below we are listing highest rated stock brokers with their interest rates as of January 2012.

The interest in all brokerage accounts is so low that customers are likely to get much more value by switching to lower commission brokerages and saving on commissions than on earning interest on their cash.
