ICE Trading Platform

The ICE Trading Platform is the fully electronic trade execution platform developed and operated by the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) Inc. The platform brings market access and transparency to participants in more than 50 countries.
The ICE Trading Platform uses Web ICE, a secure browser-based front powered by the Java Plug-In. Web ICE provides instant access to ICE's over-the-counter and futures markets with industry standard data security and encryption technology. Web ICE will work over the Internet as well as over direct or private lines.
An improved ICE platform delivers average transaction times of 3 milliseconds in ICE futures markets, and a blended average of 7 milliseconds for futures and OTC markets, combined with reliability of 99.99% during 2007. A multi-year enhancement initiative has produced consistency in performance, with less than 0.5% of all futures transactions resulting in transaction time 
over 50 milliseconds, according to the exchange.
ICE is expected to make technological enhancements in 2008, including developing an effective technology solution to bring options trading to its electronic platform. Through strategic hiring and the acquisition of Chatham Energy Partners in October 2007, ICE assembled a team with
options technology experience and customer relationships to develop an electronic options solution.

ICE UK Electricity

The ICE IPE Electricity Futures Contract is a deliverable contract through which each clearing member with a position open at cessation of trading for a contract month is obliged to make or take delivery of electricity to or from National Grid Transco in accordance with IPE Regulations. 
== Notes == 
Trading Period/Strip involves 12-month contracts, six quarter contracts and four season contracts. The expiration date for the contract is two business days prior to the first EFA calendar day of the delivery period. 
Month contracts are based on the number of days in an EFA month, namely 28 days in January, February, April, May, July, August, October and November; 35 days in March, June, September, December. Exceptions are December 2004 which will have 42 days and every sixth year there is an additional week added to one of the EFA periods. 
The delivery/settlement basis delivery is fulfilled by the debit of electricity from the energy account of one party and the credit of electricity to the energy account of the other party for every half hour settlement period of the delivery month. 
Delivery is effected by the submission (and acceptance with no subsequent rejection) of energy contract Volume Notifications by an Energy Contract Volume Notification Agent to an Energy Contract Volume Aggregation Agent on behalf of the two delivery parties. A clearing member with a contract open at cessation of trading for that month must deliver the number of lots open at a rate of 1 MW during each settlement period of the first and each subsequent day of the delivery month.

IFRS Foundation

The IFRS Foundation is a not-for-profit, public interest organization that oversees the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). It's goal is to develop high-quality, understandable, enforceable and globally accepted accounting and sustainability disclosure standards.
== History ==
The IFRS Foundation began in 1973 when professional accounting bodies of Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, United Kingdom/Ireland and the United States formed the International Accounting Standards Committee (IASC) and agreed to adopt International Accounting Standards for cross-border listings.
===International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)===
The IASB is an independent group of experts with recent practical experience in setting accounting standards, in preparing, auditing, or using financial reports, and in accounting education. Members are appointed by the Trustees of the IFRS Foundation.
===International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB)===
The International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) is a new board within the IFRS Foundation. It is charged with developing a global baseline of sustainability disclosures for the capital markets known as the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards. The goal of the standards is to provide a more accurate view of a company's sustainability-related risks and opportunities. 
On August 1, 2022, the Value Reporting Foundation was consolidated into the IFRS Foundation. The consolidation increases staff and resources committed to supporting the ISSB. The VRF’s SASB standards provide a key starting point for the development of the IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards. The VRF’s Integrated Reporting Framework provides connectivity between financial statements and sustainability-related financial disclosures.
The consolidation simplifies the sustainability disclosure landscape; it follows the consolidation of the [Climate Disclosure Standards Board] (CDSB) from [CDP] into the IFRS Foundation in early 2022.
== Products and Services ==
Among its products and services the IFRS Foundation offers international financial reporting standards, translations and accounting taxonomy.
Issued standards include:
IFRS Accounting Standards
* IFRS Accounting Standards Navigator
* IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard

IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards

The IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards are a set of guidelines for companies to follow when disclosing information about their sustainability performance. Under development by the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB), they are intended to cover important sustainability topics on which investors and other capital market participants want information. The standards are intended to be compatible with the IFRS Accounting Standards, which are managed by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
The ISSB and other standard setting organizations
To build on existing standards, the IFRS Foundation created the Technical Readiness Working Group (TRWG), which is supported by the International Organization for Securities Commissions (IOSCO). TRWG members are the Climate Disclosure Standards Board (CDSB), the IASB, the Task Force for Climate-related Disclosures (TCFD), the Value Reporting Foundation (VRF), and the World Economic Forum (WEF).
Will the standards be mandated?
The IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards will be developed in such a way that they can be combined with jurisdiction-specific requirements or requirements appropriate for the information needs of broader stakeholder groups beyond investors. Jurisdictions will decide whether to mandate use of the ISSB’s standards. Leaders of the G20 have welcomed the IFRS Foundation’s work developing a global baseline for sustainability disclosure.

IGBC Index

__NOTOC__
The IGBC index is the equities benchmark of the Colombia Stock Exchange and consists of around 30 of the exchange's highest capitalised and most liquid local shares. Although it's the official index of the CSE, the IGBC Index also competes with Colombia stock benchmarks from well known global index providers FTSE Group and MSCI.
== Background ==
The IGBC Index was created in mid-2001, shortly after the formation of the Colombia Stock Exchange and is described by Bloomberg as the "capitalization-weighted index of the liquid and highest capitalized stocks traded on the Colombia Stock Exchange." It currently consists of 29 Colombian stocks and is heavily dominated by three equities: Ecopetrol with a 37% weighting, Bancolombia with almost 12% and Suramerica de Inversiones with just over 10%. Other IGBC heavyweights include Interconexion Electrica and Textiles Fabricato Tejicondor, each with around 5% of IGBC Index weighting. 
== Competitors ==
Several other Colombian stock indexes offered by large international benchmarking corporations compete with the IGBC for global investor attention. Perhaps best known is the FTSE Group's FTSE Colombia 20 Index, consisting of the 20 most liquid share listings on the Colombia Stock Exchange weighted by adjusted market capitalization and capped to comply with U.S. tax rules. FTSE's index forms the benchmark for recently launched exchange-traded fund the Global X/InterBolsa FTSE Colombia 20 ETF, which began trading in March 2009. Another benchmark rival, the MSCI Colombia Index, was launched in 1992 with a base value of 100 and is described by Bloomberg as "a free-float weighted equity index". Its value on April 27, 2009 was 457.75.
== Latest news ==
The IGBC Index has shown signs of recovery in early 2009 after falling 29% in 2008 and 4% the previous year, but analysts expect poor first-quarter corporate results to slow the index's upward momentum. Lowered profits for IGBC Index leader and petroleum-industry giant Ecopetrol as well as declining revenues at Fabricato Tejicondor, Almacenes Exito and Grupo Nacional de Chocolates are all expected to drag on the IGBC Index for the next few months.

IG Group Holdings

IG Group Holdings plc offers financial derivatives, including Contracts for Difference (CFDs) and financial spread betting, to retail and professional clients. . IG Group is the parent company of IG Index, the UK's largest and longest-running spread betting business and IG Markets, the UK’s number one CFD provider. IG Group is also the parent of Nadex and extrabet.com.
The group is now one of the UK’s top 200 firms and is listed on the London Stock Exchange and the FTSE 250 and has a market capitalization of £2.92 billion as of March 2016. 
It is based in London with operations in 17 countries. It opened its first overseas office, in Melbourne, Australia, in 2002. 
== History ==
IG Group was founded in 1974 as the original spread betting house, which at the time offered a new way for people to trade on the price of gold by dealing on the price of an index rather than trading the commodity itself. Over the years the firm spread the concept to other products and, as the internet emerged in the late 1990s as a venue for trading, IG Group introduced online dealing. 
In 2003 IG Group introduced binary options and in 2007, the company purchased the assets of HedgeStreet, the forerunner to US-based binary platform Nadex. 
IG Group launched its second Swiss bank in Zürich in 2018 (after Geneva in 2014), and in 2015 opened a Dubai (UAE) office.
On January 21, 2021, IG Group said it had agreed to buy U.S. brokerage and financial education firm tastytrade Inc. for $1 billion -- $300 million in cash and 61.0 million IG shares valued at $700 million. IG Group said the acquisition of Chicago-based tastytrade would significantly increase the scale of IG’s existing U.S. business and allow the company to benefit from recent growth in "self-directed" retail investing in U.S. listed options and futures. 
In late February 2021, IG Group said it had suspended leveraged trading in 900 shares in response to volatile trading conditions in certain small stocks. IG customers are allowed to buy the affected shares, but they must supply their own capital to cover those positions.
