A Visit to IG in UK - Office Found
United Kingdom

Reason for this visit

According to the Reuters, the United Kingdom has been expanding its leading role in the field of global foreign exchange trading since its public voting to leave the European Union. In addition, British retail foreign exchange market is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), one of the world's top three stringent regulatory bodies. Many foreign exchange brokers take pride in obtaining FCA license in the hopes of developing market business in the country. In order to help investors and practitioners to have a more comprehensive understanding of foreign exchange brokers in the UK, WikiFX survey team is going to the country for on-site visits to local companies.
