Overview: IG Index was founded in 1974 by Stuart Wheeler, one of Britain's best-known gamblers, who has made over £100 million by selling shares in the company. Apart from the financial markets the company also offers a comprehensive sports spread betting service called IG Sport, which has made a real name for itself for the huge number of markets it offers on live, televised sporting action.
Markets: You can open up a position any sporting action in the UK including football, horse racing, greyhounds, cricket, rugby union, rugby league, golf, tennis, ice hockey, snooker, American football, boxing, motor sport, TV specials and politics.
On any televised football match you will find that IG Sport has an extremely comprehensive market offering with normally over 100 markets available, everything from the supremacy and total goals to more speculative markets such as leading minutes and time of first red card. Some of these markets are in-running giving you the ability to open and close positions while the match is being played.
