Dubai:

Saxo Bank, the Fintech specialist focused on multi-asset trading and investment, said its UAE-based female trader clients have increased by 139 per cent since December 2016.

Women now constitute 10 per cent of all Saxo Bank-registered online traders in the UAE — up from eight per cent in December 2016.

“One in 10 of all Saxo Bank traders in the UAE are women and we see tremendous growth potential in this segment as more and more women take leading positions in the domestic workforce,” Steve Weller, CEO of MENA region for Saxo Bank said in a statement.
