XTB, a global fintech company headquartered in Poland, has opened a new office in One Central (Offices 5) at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

The move follows XTB’s latest regulatory developments, including its new licence from the UAE’s Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) and the renewal of its licence from the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA).

These regulatory approvals reinforce the company’s compliance with financial security and investor protection standards.

The SCA and DFSA are the UAE’s primary financial regulators, overseeing investment firms to ensure transparency and investor protection.

The newly acquired SCA licence allows XTB to operate as a regulated brokerage for retail and institutional investors in the UAE.

Meanwhile, the renewal of its DFSA licence enables the company to continue serving clients within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).

“Our expansion in Dubai and our regulatory milestones mark a new stage of consolidation for XTB in the Middle East,”

said Achraf Drid, Managing Director at XTB MENA.

“The UAE is a key market for us, this is why securing compliance with both the SCA and DFSA is key in allowing us to offer even greater security, transparency, and investment opportunities to our clients. With our new office in One Central in the Dubai World Trade Centre, we are strategically positioned to enhance our services and support investors in the region like never before.”

XTB’s investment platform provides access to over 6,300 financial instruments, including stocks, ETFs, and CFDs on forex, commodities, and indices.

The platform also offers financial education resources such as webinars, courses, and market insights for investors of all levels.
