Our verdict on LCG

Founded in 1996 in London, UK, LCG is a traditional, FCA-regulated broker with a clearly stated product offering. Account types are simple, with a single live account with no minimum deposit and tight spreads, which can also be easily converted into an Islamic swap-free account – an ECN Account also exists but the minimum deposit is 10,000 USD.

LCG has a huge range of tradeable assets – including bonds, interest rates and ETFs – and supports both MT4 and its proprietary LCG Trader platform. Education and market analysis are both excellent and traders also have access to the Trading Central application for further analytical support.
