The company stated:
If you have previously agreed to transfer your account to IG Europe but have not received confirmation that the transfer has taken place, please email the helpdesk / live chat us as soon as possible so we can look into this.
Please note that, after 31 December, you will still be placed on closings only until your account has been successfully transferred. Therefore if you consent to the transfer, you won’t be able to open any new positions from 31 December until the transfer has taken place. We expect the transfer to happen in mid-January, and we will notify you of your transfer date in advance.
As the end of the Brexit transition period is just two days away, UK brokers are losing their “passporting” rights allowing them to provide services across Europe. From the beginning of the new year, they will need country-specific approvals to continue providing services. The change has made some brokers abolish offering services to non-UK clients. Financial advisers based in UK will have to abide different rules and requirements if they want to operate in Europe
