In 1974, the firm was founded by Stuart Wheeler as a spread betting business. Initially known as IG Index, it provided investors with the opportunity to trade gold prices as an index rather than buying the physical commodity. In 2000, the company was renamed as IG Group PLC.

Throughout its history, the firm has made a few acquisitions in order to diversify its business portfolio and expand its market presence. In 2007, it purchased HedgeStreet, a US-based company that developed an electronic marketplace allowing online retail investors to trade financial derivatives. It was later rebranded by IG Group as the North American Derivatives Exchange or Nadex.

In October 2008, IG bought FXOnline Japan KK, a Japanese retail forex business. The third and most recent acquisition was made in September 2016, when it purchased DailyFX, a foreign exchange trading news and research portal, for $40 million.

In April 2017, the company introduced IG Smart Portfolios, a suite of ETF investment portfolios created in partnership with BlackRock. The launch marked IG’s first move into online wealth management.
