Retail Investor Market Data End User Fee Waiver
Retail Investors play a major role in capital markets, contributing to market liquidity and driving market sentiment. London Stock Exchange has long advocated for the greater inclusion of retail investors in UK capital markets so that they can share in the growth of UK companies.
Effective January 2025, we no longer charge fees for retail investors to access real-time market data from London Stock Exchange and Turquoise. This means a full waiver on market data monthly end user charges for all customers that qualify as Private Investors [Note 1]. Retail brokers will be able to provide high-quality, real-time data based on liquid markets to eligible customers free of end user charges. We anticipate this will encourage retail investors to make more informed trading decisions based on the latest, most accurate data available, and lead to better outcomes for investors in UK securities.
Please note this initiative supersedes the APAC Retail Market Data Promotion and the UAE Retail Market Data Promotion.
