Why spread bet on bonds and interest rates? 

Spread betting bonds and interest rates are a popular way to trade. 

No commissions 

Trade bonds and interest rates commission-free and trade with margin from just 20% on bonds and interest rates markets. 

Popular markets 

Speculate on UK Long Gilt, US T-note and Euro Bund markets, plus interest rates including Short Sterling. 

Tax-free trades 

Spread betting in the UK is exempt from Stamp Duty and Capital Gains Tax*, which means you retain more of any potential profits. 

Spread betting bonds vs traditional trading

When you spread bet on bonds or interest rates, you avoid the cost of traditional trading – thanks to no Stamp Duty or Capital Gains Tax.* Plus, you gain the flexibility to trade bonds with leverage and go long or short without owning the underlying asset. However, while leverage magnifies your profits, it will do the same to your losses.

Most popular bonds and interest rates to spread bet

Speculate on actively traded bond markets like UK Long Gilt, US T-Note, and Euro Bund, which respond directly to central bank policy and inflation data. You can also spread bet on interest rates like Short Sterling, which allow you to get ahead of the Bank of England’s rate decisions.
