UK retail investors gain direct access to buy gilts at primary dealer prices via Hargreaves Lansdown and Interactive Investor, broadening European government bond market access.
UK retail investors will have access to buy gilts, government bonds, at the same price as primary dealers, thanks to trading platforms Hargreaves Lansdown and Interactive Investor. The move aims to broaden access to government bond markets in Europe. The platforms will allow clients to indirectly participate in new gilt sales from the Debt Management Office by taking bids, buying the securities from primary bond dealers, and re-selling them to retail investors at the auction price.
