Strengthening Regional Presence with Compliance, Innovation, and Investor Protection
XTB, a leading global fintech company, has announced the expansion of its operations in the UAE with the opening of its second office at One Central, Dubai World Trade Centre. This strategic move reinforces XTB’s commitment to the Middle East and enhances its ability to serve investors in the region.
A Major Regulatory Milestone
The expansion coincides with XTB securing key regulatory achievements, including compliance with the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) regulations and the renewal of its Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) licence. These milestones solidify XTB’s standing as a fully regulated brokerage, ensuring transparency, security, and investor protection.
The SCA and DFSA are the UAE’s primary financial regulatory bodies, playing a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of capital markets. With its newly acquired SCA licence, XTB is now positioned to serve both retail and institutional investors under the highest regulatory standards. The renewal of its DFSA licence allows the company to continue its operations within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), providing world-class financial solutions in a secure environment.
A Strategic Expansion in a Growing Market
“Our expansion in Dubai and our regulatory milestones represent a new phase of growth for XTB in the Middle East,” said Achraf Drid, Managing Director at XTB MENA. “The UAE is a key market for us, and securing compliance with both the SCA and DFSA enables us to provide enhanced security, transparency, and investment opportunities to our clients. With our new office in One Central, we are strategically positioned to offer even better services and support investors in the region like never before.”
XTB’s advanced investment platform provides access to over 6,300 financial instruments, including stocks, ETFs, and CFDs across various asset classes such as forex, commodities, and indices. Beyond trading, the platform serves as a hub for financial education, offering webinars, courses, and market insights tailored to investors at all levels. With customer support available in 18 languages, XTB continues to make investing more accessible, efficient, and secure.
Commitment to the UAE’s Financial Landscape
The opening of XTB’s new Dubai office underscores its long-term commitment to the UAE and the broader Middle East market. As the region cements its position as a global financial hub, XTB remains focused on delivering innovative investment solutions, regulatory excellence, and an enhanced customer experience. This expansion signals a new era for XTB in the Middle East, one driven by compliance, innovation, and a steadfast dedication to investor protection.
