[Russian related stock trading (e.g. POLY)]

Hi @OfentseIG

OK, fair enough.  It's just awkward to have to open an account with another broker if I did want to trade this UK stock.

Thanks.

Hi @OfentseIG

Thanks for your reply.  I already understood it was restricted on the system due to being Russia related, but it is not a suspended stock on the LSE.

My question was why IG have this restriction in place when other UK brokers do not?

For example, I have heard from other traders that all the brokers listed below allow this to be freely traded - so it just seems strange that IG disallow it?

Thanks.

Hi,

I notice that it is only possible to sell, not purchase shares in POLY - a company that have a lot of mining operations in Russia.

I understand that other brokers such as Hargreave Lansdown, Interactive Investor, AJ Bell etc all allow this stock to be bought and sold without problem.

Why is this not possible via IG?
