International Securities, an Abu Dhabi-based securities brokerage firm, and a subsidiary of the International Holding Company launched a new global trading and digital onboarding platform for local and international investors.
The new digital platform will enable investors from all corners of the world to generate national investor numbers (NIN) and gain access to securities listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) and the Dubai Financial Market (DFM).
As a result of this innovative platform, customers can open a brokerage account with International Securities, and transact freely from anywhere in the world. By digitizing this process both local and international customers will benefit from the digitally-enabled experience and can participate in upcoming IPOs across both ADX and DFM.
Commenting on this, Ayman Hamed, CEO of International Securities, said: ”With this new platform, both our local and international customers will benefit from a seamless digital experience, with the freedom to transact from anywhere in the world. They will also be able to register their interest in any upcoming IPOs in the UAE, which is in high demand amongst international investors.”
For his part, Saeed Hamad Al Dhaheri, the Managing Director and CEO of ADX, added: “Net foreign investment on ADX increased by 136 percent during the first half of the year reaching 12 billion dirhams, which is a testament to the strong international and institutional interest in our growing and dynamic exchange.”
