An anonymous “banking group” becomes the first client for the new technology solution.
IG unit targets hedge fund market with branded trading infrastructure.
IG Prime, the prime brokerage and institutional offering
from IG Group (LSE: IGG), has launched a white label trading platform that
allows partner institutions to offer multi-asset trading services under their
own brand, with an unnamed international banking group becoming the first
client for the new offering.
The
platform provides banking group hedge fund clients with access to IG's global trading infrastructure, while maintaining the bank's branding throughout the
user experience. The arrangement represents IG Prime's push to expand beyond
its traditional prime brokerage services into technology partnerships with
financial institutions.
The white
label solution provides access to derivatives across equities, indices, foreign
exchange, commodities and fixed income markets. Partner institutions can offer
their clients IG Prime's execution technology while presenting it as their own
service.
The
platform integrates trading, analytics and risk management tools within what IG
describes as a secure and scalable environment. Desktop and mobile access come
standard, along with connection to IG Prime's low-latency execution systems.
This is another update following the early August announcement that IG Group’s institutional unit expanded its offering to include access to data from the Australian exchange via CBOE through its FIX API.
Babita Ittoo Devillers, Managing Director of IG Prime
IG Prime's
move into white label services follows a broader industry trend where
established brokerages monetize their technology infrastructure by licensing it
to other financial firms. The model allows partners to offer sophisticated
trading capabilities without building their own systems from scratch.
"This
product launch marks a significant milestone for IG Prime," said Babita
Ittoo Devillers, Managing Director of IG Prime. "Our enhanced white label
platform expands our institutional capabilities, delivering a highly
sophisticated offering with broad market reach for our clients."
The banking
group partnership gives IG Prime access to institutional hedge fund clients it
might not have reached through direct sales efforts. IG Prime, the
institutional arm of FTSE 250-listed IG Group, already serves institutional
funds through its traditional prime brokerage operations.
The company
has not disclosed the financial terms of the partnership or revealed the identity
of the banking group client. IG Prime said the platform meets regulatory
standards required for institutional trading operations.
Earlier this week, FinanceMagnates.com reported that after five years as Chairman, Mike McTighe is stepping down from the Group. However, he will stand for re-election at the upcoming AGM despite the announcement of his departure.

Executive Interview | Charlotte Bullock | Chief Product Officer, Bank of London | FMLS:25
In this interview, we sat down with Charlotte Bullock, Head of Product at The Bank of London, previously at SAP and now shaping product at one of the sector’s most ambitious new banking players.
Charlotte reflects on the Summit so far and talks about the culture inside fintech banks today. We look at the pressures that come with scaling, and how firms can hold onto the nimble approach that made them stand out early on.
We also cover the state of payments ahead of her appearance on the payments roundtable: the blockages financial firms face, the areas that still need fixing, and what a realistic solution looks like in 2026.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.
