IGindex - why you should open an account with them

Sophie Roberts - 11 Feb 2009

Dealing with IG Index has some very significant advantages over dealing through a broker in the normal way.

Here are seven important benefits:

  1. Tax-free profits*
    HM Customs and Excise recognise that the transactions are bets. As a result, your profits are exempt from capital gains tax and income tax.*

  2. 24-hour dealing
    IGindex are open 24 hours a day from Sunday night to Friday night. IGindex quotes prices on leading stock indices even when the underlying markets are closed.

  3. Credit facilities
    You may be offered a Credit Account, depending on your experience and financial standing.

  4. Immediate dealing
    IGindex quotes you a price and you can deal immediately; there is no tiresome wait for an execution.

  5. Unique markets
    Many of the markets IGIndex offer are not available elsewhere. They cover
    literally thousands of shares, indices, currencies, and other markets,
    either by phone or via their industry leading PureDeal online platform.

  6. No commission or fees
    The only charge is the dealing spread.

  7. Small minimum bet sizes
    With many bets, you can trade in amounts that are smaller than the
    equivalent of one lot in the underlying futures market.

*Tax law can, of course, be changed and may differ if you pay tax in a jurisdiction other than the UK.
