Due to the unique qualities of spread betting and the fact that companies offering this service are regulated by the Financial Services Authority there are actually very few Spread Betting Firms. The main ones are:
- SPORTING INDEX
- IG INDEX
- SPREADEX
Of these by far the biggest with over 70% of the market is Sporting Index. There is a reason why they have such a large share of the market and that is the vast range of markets which they price up, and also the fact that they offer spread betting 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
