IG Extends Collaboration With Melbourne Football Club Until 2024

IG announced that its brand will be prominently displayed on the Melbourne Football Club's AFL guernsey next year.

In a new agreement, IG, which joined Melbourne in 2015, will show off its long-standing support for the Demons by appearing on the club's AFL guernsey. Its logo will be front and center for the next season and beyond.

It expands on the two's current collaboration, with IG continuing on the club's roster and as a recruiting partner.

Kevin Algeo, CEO and Head of APAC at IG Australia, said he was delighted to be able to announce an increase in investment in the IG and Melbourne alliance as it continues into 2024.

“We're thrilled to be standing beside the red and blue in 2024 and beyond,” he added.

“IG and the Melbourne Football Club represent the meeting of ambition and excellence.” Melbourne symbolizes brilliance in sport, while IG represents excellence in financial trading as Australia's number one trading platform*. Both firms share similar principles and a desire to exceed expectations in whatever we do. It seems appropriate that one of Australia's oldest and most experienced trade platforms joins with the country's oldest and most experienced football team, with a history as long as Melbourne's.

“We're thrilled to continue our sponsorship for the Melbourne Football Club, whose players, staff, and members reflect our own commitment to cooperation, innovation, and rapid learning.” We can't wait for the 2023 season, and seeing the IG logo prominently displayed on the guernsey brings us great joy.

Melbourne CEO Gary Pert was similarly thrilled with the expansion of the alliance.

“It's amazing to have IG's continuous support, and for our collaboration to continue to grow as we approach the 2023 AFL season,” Pert added.

“IG will be an excellent addition to our men's guernsey, and we look forward to working together to achieve further success.”

New Balance formerly had the yoke position, and the company is still the club's clothing partner, having recently negotiated a three-year contract extension.

IG has 47 years of trading expertise, which is unrivaled in the trading industry.
