Living in the United States, I would like to know the best way to invest in A shares, I have no interest in leverage or derivatives. I have been searching for the greatest commissions and a trustworthy holder, it would be advantageous if the margin rate was acceptable. Any suggestions?

I should have been more explicit. A-shares is what I intended.

Moomoo, Tiger, or IBKR? Moomoo and Tiger both offer commission-free trading, while IBKR has the lowest margin rates but comes with commission fees.

What do you mean by class A shares?
Not all companies have different share classes, and those that do may structure them differently. For example, Facebook has a special class of shares that only Mark Zuckerberg and a few other founders can own, which gives them about 100 times the voting rights. However, these shares aren’t transferable, if Zuckerberg decides to sell, they become regular shares.
Other companies, like Google or Berkshire Hathaway, offer shares with varying voting rights, but there isn’t a clear thesis suggesting that investing only in companies with dual share classes would yield better returns.
As for the brokerage, it shouldn’t really matter, any broker should be able to buy shares that are traded on the market.

I think It’s a Chinese index. 
Why should margin rates concern you if you have no interest in leverage?
If margin rates were excluded, my choices would be Schwab or Fidelity.
Although IBKR offers the highest margin rates, they are undoubtedly not the best broker overall for typical investors because you must pay commissions.
