ADX introduces 'future-proof' market model to draw more investors

The Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) has introduced ADX Group, a new market infrastructure, along with two subsidiaries—Abu Dhabi Clear (AD Clear) and Abu Dhabi Central Securities Depository (AD CSD). This initiative, launched on February 24, is part of a broader strategy to attract more investments into the UAE and strengthen Abu Dhabi’s position as a global financial hub.

The establishment of ADX Group marks a significant step in transforming and modernizing the capital market, with a focus on improving liquidity, enhancing market accessibility, and driving long-term economic growth. The Group aims to introduce advanced post-trade capabilities, an upgraded trading system, and enhanced clearing and settlement platforms. These improvements are expected to create more investment opportunities and cater to the evolving needs of institutional and retail investors, issuers, and businesses across the UAE and the Middle East.

In line with this transformation, ADX has entered a strategic partnership with Nasdaq to implement a Core Platform Upgrade (CPU). This technological enhancement will strengthen trading, clearing, and post-trade services, ensuring greater operational efficiency and attracting a diverse range of market participants.

Additionally, the newly established subsidiaries, AD Clear and AD CSD, play a critical role in supporting the securities market by offering essential clearing, settlement, depository, and risk management services. These functions are designed to enhance market efficiency, facilitate capital flows, and contribute to the overall economic expansion of Abu Dhabi.

Through these initiatives, ADX Group is reinforcing its position as a key player in the global financial landscape by leveraging technology to optimize market performance and drive investment growth.
