Stock Trading Forex Brokers in the UAE

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is home to a large number of forex & CFD brokers, most of which also offer stock CFDs from at least a few of the world’s largest companies for trading. However, the regulatory situation in the UAE is not simple, and brokers there are overseen by a tangle of different regulatory agencies.

Although the regulatory situation is complex, regulations on trading conditions for ordinary non-professional traders are generally more relaxed in the UAE than in both the EU and North America. This means that for example trading leverage is significantly higher, with 1:500 leverage commonly offered as the maximum.
