IG Enhances Share Dealing Offering with New Cost and Charge Updates

As part of its ongoing commitment to delivering greater value to traders and investors, IG— the UK’s number one broker— is introducing key updates to its share dealing costs and charges. These changes, effective from 1st April 2025, will enhance the trading experience while maintaining IG’s competitive edge.

What’s Changing?

IG is making several significant updates to its pricing structure:

• Zero Commission on UK Stocks – IG is removing commission fees on UK stock trades, ensuring that all markets remain commission-free.
• Earn Interest on Uninvested Cash – Clients will now have the opportunity to earn 4.5% AER variable on uninvested GBP balances up to £100,000.
• FX Conversion Fee Adjustment – The foreign exchange (FX) conversion fee will increase from 0.5% to 0.7%.

These enhancements reinforce IG’s dedication to providing a cost-effective and innovative trading environment for its clients.

What This Means for You

With commission-free UK stock trading, investors can buy and sell shares more affordably, making trading even more accessible. Additionally, earning interest on uninvested cash provides an added financial benefit for those who keep funds in their accounts.

However, IG acknowledges that interest payments may not be suitable for all clients. If you prefer not to receive interest on your uninvested balance, you can opt out by contacting the IG support team.

For any questions regarding the FX fee adjustment or other changes, IG’s customer service team is available to provide further information and assistance.

These updates reflect IG’s ongoing effort to enhance trading value, reduce costs, and ensure a seamless investing experience for its clients.
