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.

Multi-Asset Access
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.

Revenue Sharing Model
Drives Expansion
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.
