The global Contract for Difference (CFD) market has grown spectacularly over the past decades and shows no signs of slowing down, with an estimated annual compound growth rate of 4.3% from 2023 to 2028.

CFD trading offers convenient, low-cost access to assets like oil, gold, currencies, and stocks, making it appealing to traders worldwide.

Yet, with this convenience comes complexity-and that means risk.

CFDs are intricate financial instruments, and brokers often have flexibility in setting fees and spreads, which are not always fully disclosed.
