It is automatically generated (in pdf format) and sent to your registered email address on the following working day if there has been activity on the account. For example, the Friday daily statement will be generated on the following Monday.

You can also find daily statements under MyIG > Live Accounts > Statements > Daily.

No daily statement will be generated if there has been no activity on the account on that day

Sending this statement is a regulatory requirement, which is why you cannot opt out

This statement is usually made available one or two months after the end of the UK financial year.

CTC's will not be generated for ISA or SIPP accounts. ISA and SIPP accounts are not tax reportable, so we don’t send out any tax documents for these accounts.

For non-UK tax residents, an Income Summary can be provided on request

NB:

  • We do not provide any capital gains (sometimes called P&L) statements for share dealing accounts
  • We do not generate tax statement for spread betting accounts since spread betting does not attract capital gains tax or stamp duty1 in the UK
