| ig index broke new ground
when we introduced bets on a small number of individual
ftse 100 shares in 1996. since then, their shares desk has
grown dramatically and they now make betting prices in every
one of the top 350 uk shares, as well as thousands of leading
us and european shares.
the idea of betting on a share (rather than buying or selling
through a stockbroker or share shop) may seem a bit odd
at first, but our service has substantial advantages over
normal share dealing:
tax-free profits*
as with all our bets, your profits are free from uk capital
gains and income tax.*
gearing
you can take a position in a stock without having to put
up the full contract value. instead, you put up a margin
deposit as collateral, normally around 20% of the contract
value. if you have a credit account you do not normally
need to put up any deposit.
low transaction costs
there is no commission or stamp duty to pay. the only charge
is our dealing spread, which generally varies from 0.4%
to 0.8% of the share price.
easy to go short
you can go long or short of any share that we quote. while
there are other methods of shorting a stock, they are less
straightforward and not usually available to smaller private
investors.
small minimum deal sizes
you don't need to make big bets. the minimum deal size for
uk shares can be as low as £1/point, depending on
the price of the stock.
bets on shares work in very much the same way as all our
other bets. we make a quote for the price of a share on
a given date in the future, and you decide whether you think
the share will be higher or lower by that time. if you think
it will be higher, you 'buy' at our quote. if you think
it will be lower, you 'sell' at our quote.
