Interactive Brokers (Nasdaq: IBKR), an automated global electronic broker, today announced the introduction of United Arab Emirates (UAE) equities through two leading exchanges in one of the world’s fastest-growing economic regions. Clients of Interactive Brokers worldwide can now access the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) and the Dubai Financial Market (DFM).

Adding UAE stocks further expands Interactive Brokers’ market access and enhances the investment opportunities available to local and global investors. Interactive Brokers supports account funding and trading in up to 28 currencies, including AED. International clients can deposit funds in their local currency and convert them to AED at low FX conversion rates to trade.

“As market participants seek to uncover new investment opportunities around the world, adding UAE equities offers both local and international investors access to the economic growth afforded by this dynamic region, alongside products from over 160 other global markets on the same platform,” said Milan Galik, Chief Executive Officer of Interactive Brokers. “This announcement, coupled with our new office in Dubai International Financial Center (DIFC), reflects our strengthening foothold in the Middle East and a continued expansion of unparalleled market access for active traders and institutional investors worldwide.
