ADIB Securities provides access to UAE exchanges and also markets Saudi and US trading. The public UAE tariff is unusually specific: it separates DFM broker, market, SCA, depository and order components, and it publishes account, custody and inactivity-related platform charges. Those UAE figures should not be transplanted to the separate KSA or US routes.[1][2][6][5]
