You can trade in Dubai Financial Market (DFM), one of the leading financial markets in the region, seamlessly through Daman Securities. Dubai Financial Market (DFM) launched its activities on 26th March, 2000. Within a short period of time, the DFM has fast developed into a leading financial market across the region. Its ongoing efforts and strategic initiatives have further reinforced Dubai as a center of excellence in this part of the world. DFM enhanced its leading position as a powerful capital market hub that embraces international best practices to meet the evolving needs of its investors locally and internationally.
In addition to this, DFM is the first financial market to have offered its shares through an IPO in the Middle East, and this reflects the leading role played by the Emirate of Dubai in selling shares of governmental institutions in the region.
