A Global Heritage

Cantor Index is proud to be part of the Cantor Fitzgerald Group, a global leader in financial services since 1945. We have over ten years’ experience in retail derivative trading in the UK, so you can trade with confidence in the knowledge that you are dealing with experts who may actually have seen it all before. Our passion for trading and our experience means we have extensive market knowledge, and a team of passionate customer focused traders. Our experts strive to provide the very best personalised service underpinned with care and clarity.

Financial Strength

Cantor Index is part of a group that is rated by the credit agencies. The Cantor group’s financial strength stems from having a liquid balance sheet and a sizeable liquidity pool combined with prudent liquidity management. Further to this the group has low unsecured credit risk and very limited direct market risk. Such factors are crucial in these testing times and should instil confidence in our clients.

Client Money Protection

Cantor Index is governed by FSA regulations when holding client money and must make arrangements to safeguard it from losses should Cantor Index fail. Cantor Index segregates client money by placing it into accounts with approved banks. This means it is completely separate from Cantor's own money. Cantor Index is required by FSA regulations to place client money with a number of banks in order to mitigate the risk of any one bank’s failure.
