Tzion Sigron
Founder & Editor, GetGlobalYields

Hi, I'm Tzion, the person behind GetGlobalYields.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Economics and Management, and I've spent years working at the intersection of finance and data. For five years, I worked at a company that builds financial information software for the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, where I specialized in bond data. My job was to take raw fixed-income data straight from the exchange, process it, and integrate it into systems that financial clients relied on every day. That work gave me a close, hands-on understanding of how market data actually moves from source to decision-maker, and how easily things get lost in translation along the way.

Alongside that, I've been personally investing in the Israeli stock market for years, and for the past 4.5 years I've been actively investing in the US stock market too. That means I've dealt firsthand with the tax treaties, reporting requirements, and account structures that trip up so many international investors, the same issues this site is built to help you navigate.

I started GetGlobalYields because I got tired of watching non-US investors wade through confusing, US-centric, or outdated information just to invest confidently in American markets. Most of what's out there is written for an American audience and never adapted for anyone else. My goal is to take what I've learned, both from working with financial data professionally and from investing my own money across two markets, and turn it into clear, practical guides that actually apply to your situation.

How this content is created

Every article on GetGlobalYields starts with primary sources: tax treaties, IRS and brokerage documentation, and exchange data. I fact-check the numbers myself before anything is published, and I personally edit and review each piece for accuracy. Nothing goes live without that step.

This site is built for education, not personalized advice. It does not provide individualized financial or tax recommendations. Always consult a licensed advisor for decisions specific to your own circumstances.
