Thank You! It is a purely EU product (originated in the UK) and then exported a bit everywhere because of its low transaction costs and high leverage possibility (especially useful for trading, not investing). In the US for example it is banned for use as well as in other countries. After ESMA regulations there has been a slight outflow but brokers have equipped themselves to continue to provide optimal service. Like all things there is not only black or white but there are shades of gray can sometimes help.
Super informative! Sadly I knew almost nothing about CFDs.
