Emirates NBD has launched a digital wealth platform allowing customers to trade securities and ETFs on global and local exchanges. Examples include Nasdaq, NYSE, London Stock Exchange and local markets Dubai Financial Market, Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, and Nasdaq Dubai. In all, there are more than 11,000 global equities and 150 regional equities available to trade on the platform.
The platform is embedded within the bank’s newly launched mobile App ENBD X. Unveiled in September, ENBD X offers access to more than 150 everyday banking services and features. Specifically, ENBD X allows customers to invest and trade in complex financial instruments from the same app that also fulfils all their everyday banking needs.
Zero commissions until December for ENBD X users
As part of Emirates NBD’s on-going 60th anniversary celebrations, the bank has launched an exclusive three-month digital wealth campaign for ENBD X users. Customers can invest, buy and/or sell on ENBD X with zero commissions for the three months period to end December.
All applicable charges will be refunded within seven working days following each calendar month’s end. Moreover, custody fees are waived for the duration of the offer.
The new wealth platform offers an instant onboarding journey to both existing investment account holders as well as new investors. Emirates NBD says that this involves three easy steps. New investors are sent their account details on SMS and e-mail immediately. They can start trading securities and ETFs immediately after adding funds to their account through the platform’s Express Top-Up facility.
In addition, customers can use the platform to review market updates related to their portfolios and see daily market movers. It also offers investment tools with historical and intraday charts. This includes technical analysis, along with access to independent analyst ratings and fundamental data on market consensus.
