The Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) Group has confirmed that Morgan Stanley is now its inaugural international Remote Trading Member. This new arrangement facilitates direct trading access for Morgan Stanley’s global clientele on the ADX platform.
This initiative marks a significant advancement in enhancing ADX’s global outreach and is driven by the rising interest among international institutional investors eyeing UAE markets. ADX is rapidly expanding its stature and is recognized as one of the world’s leading stock exchanges by market capitalisation.
Through this remote trading membership, Morgan Stanley stands to offer its clients streamlined access to ADX via its global trading platforms, which will optimize trading performance, elevate execution standards, and give merchants more oversight of their trading activities.
The ADX plays a crucial role in furthering Abu Dhabi’s long-term economic strategy, endorsing a diversified and innovation-led economy. Morgan Stanley's integration notably bolsters the UAE’s profile as an appealing market for global financiers.
Abdulla Salem Alnuaimi, Group CEO of ADX, expressed that this move aligns with their vision to cultivate a top-tier global financial marketplace. He noted an impressive increase in foreign investor activity, highlighting a trading volume surpassing AED 85 billion in Q1 2026, representing a 22% rise from the previous year.
Patrick Delivanis, Regional Co-Head of MENA at Morgan Stanley, mentioned that the firm’s entry into ADX signifies a commitment to providing efficient access to Abu Dhabi’s capital markets, noting the uptick in international market participation.
The collaboration adheres to a successful global trading framework and aspires to deliver transparent access to investment opportunities offered on ADX.
Morgan Stanley's membership is in close alignment with ADX’s strategy to broaden worldwide access and draw high-quality international investments. In 2025, foreign investments in ADX surged by about 14%, with institutional trading escalating by 10%.
Morgan Stanley is set to initiate trading on ADX as a remote member shortly, pending final operational preparations.
