Apologies if this is a silly question, but does IG make/pay dividend adjustments when you are holding a Futures contract? I know they do with DFBs and I have searched the site with regards to Futures but am struggling to find anything that specifically references dividend adjustments on Futures contracts
There is a note on my Trade Analytics that says "Your average holder time on indices is 10 days. It's usually cheaper to hold futures contracts after 3-6 days." This makes sense as the initial cost (wider spread on the Futures) will be more than offset but the absence of any daily interest fees after a few days (or week). However, the Dividend adjustments I receive are higher than the aggregate daily interest cost (albeit the Dividend adjustment is only paid periodically) which is why I am trying to confirm that I would still receive these Dividend Adjustments if I trade Futures rather than DFBs?
Can anyone confirm this, or point me towards where I can find it on the IG site (I have looked but I must not be looking in the right places).
Thanks in advance!
