This new service was introduced recently by DFM in response to regulatory changes. To date, DFM has processed AED 8 million worth of such transfers.

‘We are continuously evolving our strategies with the intention of best serving our clients; discerning investors who understand the merits of long-term foresight. We feel that our company will benefit greatly from the addition of Margin Liability Transfer procedure, inevitably benefitting our clients who will have a tool to transfer securities financed by margin from one brokerage company to another in a secured and organized manner. Being the first brokerage house to do so, it is another proud benchmark, as we grow with our industry’- Noted Abdel Hadi Al Sa’di, Managing Director of Brokerage House Securities.
