What it means for a retail trader
The regulator licenses brokers that deal with onshore UAE clients and also requires people who publish investment recommendations to UAE audiences to be registered. Check its list of licensed companies for the exact legal entity.
How to check a firm
Search the firm’s legal name or licence number on the official register linked above. Confirm that the name, the number and the website on the register match the firm you are dealing with, and that its permissions cover the product you want to trade. Clone firms often borrow a real firm’s name and number but use a different web address.
