eToro and ADX Partner to Expand Investment Opportunities in UAE

eToro, the global trading and investing platform, has teamed up with the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) to bring a selection of ADX-listed stocks to its platform. This strategic collaboration marks a significant step forward for both organizations in expanding their reach and offering greater investment opportunities.

Expanded Investment Opportunities for eToro Users

Beginning in 2025, eToro users will have access to a range of companies listed on the ADX. These businesses span various sectors, such as energy, real estate, banking, finance, technology, and healthcare. This partnership provides investors with the chance to diversify their portfolios by including stocks from one of the world's most rapidly growing exchanges, which ranks within the top 20 globally by market capitalization.

ADX's Impressive Growth and Market Performance

The ADX General Index has seen an impressive 75% growth since 2021, positioning the exchange among the top four globally in terms of market performance. This growth underscores the strong potential of the ADX as an emerging player in the global stock market, making it an attractive addition for investors looking to broaden their horizons.

Yoni Assia, Co-Founder and CEO at eToro, said: “We are excited to announce our partnership with the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, enabling eToro users to trade ADX-listed stocks. Since our founding in 2007, we’ve built a global, multi-asset investment offering and today offer our users from 75 countries the ability to trade in equities from more than 20 stock exchanges.”

Abdulla Salem Alnuaimi, Group Chief Executive Officer of ADX, said: “ADX is dedicated to connecting global investors with opportunities in one of the region’s most dynamic markets. Our partnership with eToro will provide seamless access to leading ADX-listed companies across key sectors for over 38 million registered users on eToro, enhancing market liquidity and reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s position as a premier destination for international investment.”

George Naddaf, Managing Director, Business Development for the MENA region at eToro said: “We are delighted to announce our partnership with the ADX during Abu Dhabi Finance Week. This marks eToro's first anniversary as a licensed broker serving the needs of retail investors in the UAE. Our data indicates that currently only 42% of UAE retail investors have exposure to ADX-listed stocks. However, there is a strong sense of optimism, with 80% anticipating market growth within the next year. This collaboration enables both our local and global users to capitalize on the region's growth trajectory and aligns with our commitment to supporting the UAE’s economic vision.”
