Emirates NBD has announced a new enhancement to its margin trading facilities, enabling eligible customers to submit a digital application for a credit limit of up to AED 10 million, helping them increase their buying power when trading shares.

The bank stated that margin trading gives investors the opportunity to strengthen their investment capacity by borrowing against their existing share portfolios, instead of selling current shares to access liquidity. It added that the service remains an investment option available to eligible customers, with digital improvements that make the application process easier and faster.

The new upgrade aims to simplify the procedures for obtaining these facilities through digital channels, with a fast response time. This helps customers follow market movements more effectively, respond to them with greater flexibility, and benefit from investment opportunities at the right time.

Ahmed Al Qassim, Group Head of Wholesale Banking at Emirates NBD, said the bank’s integrated digital margin trading facilities provide customers with greater buying power through a secure, easy-to-use, and responsive platform. He added that this step reflects the bank’s commitment to supporting market development and offering solutions that keep pace with investors’ changing needs.

For his part, Marwan Hadi, Group Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management at Emirates NBD, said that enhancing margin trading facilities gives customers broader flexibility to access available investment opportunities.

He added that the new solution helps support active customers and high-net-worth individuals by enabling them to manage their investment portfolios more efficiently, while benefiting from the digital tools offered by the bank as part of its investment services.
