IG Group Holdings plc

IG Group Holdings plc operates globally as an online trading platform. The company's primary offerings include over-the-counter (OTC) leveraged derivatives, notably Contracts for Difference (CFDs), which allow investors to profit from asset price movements without actually owning the underlying assets. These products come equipped with essential risk management features like stop-loss orders, limits, and negative-balance protection. Additionally, clients can engage in spread betting and options trading. The firm also provides access to exchange-traded derivatives through its proprietary platforms, such as tastytrade, an online brokerage and educational resource, and Spectrum, a multilateral trading facility. Furthermore, IG Group offers services for direct stock trading and a variety of investment opportunities across commodities, equities, and fixed-income assets. Its extensive service portfolio extends to foreign exchange (forex) trading, market risk solutions, data distribution, investment advisory, software development and support, financial services, publication activities, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) trading, translation services, and the issuance of turbo warrants. Founded in 1974, the company's main offices are situated in London, United Kingdom.
