The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) will hold a seminar to raise awareness on how recent amendments to federal bylaws governing DIFC and to the listing requirements for Dubai International Financial Exchange (DIFX) have opened new business and investment opportunities for companies and investors.
Under the theme of 'Going to Market in the DIFC', the seminar will explain how changes to the listing regulations in DIFX allow for UAE-based firms to list on the exchange via a holding company incorporated in DIFC without lengthy procedures.
Abdulla Al Awar, managing director of the DIFC Authority, said the seminar will raise awareness about how new changes in regulations have opened investment opportunities for local companies. Some of these amendments will contribute to the growth of the UAE economy by enabling companies to raise new capital necessary for their growth."
Senior DIFC and DFSA officials, leading legal experts and top investment bankers, including Jeffrey Singer, CEO of DIFX, will address seminar participants on Monday.
