About

About Mashreq Securities

Company Provided

Mashreq Securities is the brokerage arm associated with Mashreq Bank in the UAE, offering local market access, brokerage services and research primarily to UAE-based retail and institutional investors.

Since 21-07-2001 Dubai, United Arab Emirates 1 regulators listed

Expert Verdict

The relatively low risk score is supported by its First Category UAE securities regulation, long operating history and ownership by Mashreqbank. The score is not zero because investors face normal market/product risks, and the brokerage's public retail disclosure is less comprehensive than specialist online trading platforms

Pros

  • Backed by an established UAE bank with local market expertise
  • Direct access to UAE exchanges and local equities
  • Local research and client support in UAE business hours
  • Established corporate and institutional services

Cons

  • Limited international/CFD/forex product range compared with specialist forex brokers
  • Not focused on high-frequency or algorithmic retail forex trading
  • Public information on retail trading fees and leverage is limited
  • Smaller global presence for non-UAE clients

BrokerBazaar Overview

Independent

Mashreq Securities benefits from the reputation and infrastructure of Mashreq Bank and provides straightforward brokerage services to clients in the UAE, including access to local exchanges, research, and institutional services. Its strengths are local market knowledge, established corporate support and the ability to serve wealth and institutional clients with integrated banking relationships.

For traders specifically looking for forex or CFD trading, Mashreq Securities is not a specialist and public information about leveraged products, spreads and commission structures is limited compared with dedicated CFD brokers. International traders or those seeking advanced retail trading platforms, very low spreads, or high leverage may find the product set restrictive. Overall, Mashreq Securities is a solid choice for UAE-based investors focused on equities and wealth management, but less suitable for active forex/CFD traders seeking specialized features.
