FAQs

Who is IG?

We’re the world’s No.1 choice for contract for difference (CFD) trading.[1] Our offerings enable you to explore countless opportunities through access to 17,000 financial markets. You can trade or invest on our platform. When trading with us, you’ll take a position on the price movements of financial assets without owning them. When investing with us, on the other hand, you’ll become the owner of any assets that you buy.

Our business model is built around wanting you to trade or invest profitably – we don’t make any money from client losses. We’re regulated in the UAE by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). We take measures to ensure that your money and assets are protected with us, eg keeping them in accounts that are separate from our own and not using them in the course of our business activities.
