IG Welcomes Martin Price as New Head of Investor Relations

Online trading platform IG welcomes Martin Price as its new Global Head of Strategic Finance and Investor Relations, effective March 14th. Price’s extensive experience in equity research and financial services is expected to bring valuable expertise to the company as it continues to grow and diversify its business.

Price most recently served as Senior Vice President of Jefferies’ Equity Research team, where he co-led the European Diversified Financials sector coverage. He also held equity research roles at Societe Generale, Credit Suisse, and Bank of America Merrill Lynch. In his new role at IG, Price will be based at the company’s London headquarters, where he will work closely with the executive team to engage with investors and support the company’s shareholders.

IG’s Chief Financial Officer, Charlie Rozes, said, “Martin brings excellent knowledge of both the diversified financials sector and working with institutional investors through his decades of experience as a financial analyst. We look forward to him working closely with our current and prospective investor base and communicating progress on our strategy.”

Price added, “IG’s track record of successful innovation to grow and diversify makes its equity story a particularly compelling proposition. I look forward to working with my new colleagues to engage the investor base and support its shareholders.”

IG has seen a number of changes in its executives and department heads over the past few months, including the appointment of Michael Logue as Head of Product and Marketing for Europe and the promotion of Manuel Barbero to Global Head of Acquisition & Media. The company’s revenue for the first half of the financial year 2023 increased by 10% to £519.1 million, and it extended its share buyback program with an additional £50 million allocation.

Martin Price’s appointment as IG’s Global Head of Strategic Finance and Investor Relations comes at an exciting time for the company as it continues to grow and diversify its business. With his extensive experience in equity research and financial services, Price is well-positioned to engage with investors and support the company’s shareholders. As IG looks to the future, Price’s role will be crucial in communicating progress on the company’s strategy and driving further growth and innovation.
