Company information

The facts on file

Description
City Index is the trading name of StoneX Financial Ltd, offering spread betting, CFDs and forex across 13,500+ global markets via a proprietary Web Trader with TradingView charting plus MetaTrader 4. It is a leveraged-derivatives provider rather than a share-dealing app, aimed at regularly-active UK retail traders, and its fee model (no account fee but a £12/month inactivity charge) penalises dormant accounts.

FSCS protection up to £85,000 per person applies to StoneX Financial Ltd, and negative balance protection limits losses to the initial investment. Parent StoneX Group Inc. is NASDAQ-listed.
