For its CFD Trading service, BiG acts as an introducing broker to Saxo Bank A/S, where a separate partner account is required.

Editorial note: The CFD Trading account is opened with Saxo Bank A/S, so entity-specific terms, protections and eligibility should be reviewed separately from BiG's introducing role.
