For a bank, I’ve transferred a few thousand to Wise and converted it to Euros. I’m up like 10% in about 7-8 months, compared to just leaving it as dollars.

For trading, just see what ETFs your brokerage offers that target EU/APAC/whatever other region you want to target. And furthermore, if you want to pick securities individually, do the research and ensure that they’re not US-based/traded securities. You can trade non-us stuff on most US brokerages.
