Celebrating eToro’s first anniversary in the UAE with groundbreaking collaboration

Abu Dhabi, December 9, 2024 – eToro, the global trading and investment platform, has partnered with the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) to introduce ADX-listed stocks to its platform. Starting in 2025, eToro users will gain access to a diverse selection of companies across energy, real estate, banking, finance, technology, and healthcare sectors, further enhancing their investment portfolios with one of the world’s fastest-growing exchanges.

This collaboration aligns with ADX’s rise as a global leader, ranking among the top 20 exchanges by market capitalization and showcasing a 75% growth in the ADX General Index since 2021, securing its position as one of the top four performers globally.

A Milestone for eToro and ADX

Celebrating Growth in the UAE Market

Announced during Abu Dhabi Finance Week, this partnership also marks eToro’s first year as a licensed broker in the UAE. George Naddaf, Managing Director for MENA at eToro, shared insights from recent research:

“Currently, only 42% of UAE retail investors have exposure to ADX-listed stocks, but optimism is strong, with 80% anticipating market growth in the coming year. This collaboration offers local and global investors the chance to benefit from the UAE’s economic growth and aligns with our commitment to supporting the region’s economic vision.”
