IG Group Holdings

Founded in London in 1974, IG Group has evolved into a global leader in online trading, with operations in 15 countries. Initially named IG Index, the company pioneered financial spread betting, allowing clients to trade on price movements of commodities like gold without the associated costs of traditional trading. The introduction of online dealing in 1998 positioned IG at the forefront of the emerging internet-driven market. The company expanded its offerings over the years, including contracts for difference (CFDs) and binary options, and rebranded as IG Group in 2000. Its diverse revenue streams are derived from various segments, including the U.K., Australia, Europe, and other regions, which encompass financial spread bets, CFDs, and execution-only stockbroking. IG Group is recognized as one of the top firms in the UK and is publicly listed, reflecting its significant presence in the online trading sector.
