Why have we not been able to buy Polymetal all day?!

[Lexim]

Why is IG only allowing the selling of Polymetal but not the buying?

It seems some other providers are allowing their clients to continue buying Polymetal, so why aren't IG?

Please provide a explanation.

Hi @Lexim,

Thank you for you post. Polymetal International PLC has been placed on the list of Russia-exposed stocks.

Therefore no new positions can currently be opened on this stock.
As the situation continues to develop, IG may take further steps in relation to products with direct or indirect exposure to Russia, including limiting positions or increasing margin.

It is on closing only to allow clients to close their positions.

All the best - Arvin

Thank you for the reply and making it clear. I think some form of communication should have went out to clients was required yesterday, instead I was left waiting on hold, and also waiting for a agent to reply on chat, both of which didnt know why.

As you can see, we do need to be informed ASAP.
