XM has added a fresh chapter to its global footprint with the confirmation that it has received a Category 5 license from the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) of the United Arab Emirates. The authorization, granted to its new subsidiary XM Financial Products Promotion LLC, places the firm on firmer ground as it continues widening its presence across major financial jurisdictions.
In its announcement, the company noted that the green light from the SCA aligns with its broader push to operate within strong supervisory frameworks. XM highlighted that working under clear regulatory oversight helps reinforce its goal of maintaining a secure environment for clients while staying aligned with local expectations for transparency and client care.

Also, sharing thoughts on the milestone, Menelaos Menelaou, co-Chief Executive Officer at XM, pointed to the UAE’s growing status in global finance. “The UAE has established itself as a world-class financial hub, and receiving authorization from the SCA underscores our commitment to long-term growth and trust in the region,” he said. He added that XM aims to bring its established standards to traders across the Emirates, continuing the approach that shaped its reputation in other regions.
With the license now active, XM is ready to serve clients more directly in Dubai and throughout the country. The approval strengthens the firm’s on-the-ground presence and opens the door for UAE-based traders to access the company’s established ecosystem of platforms, educational programs, and local support channels.
The authorization also covers the distribution of XM’s full suite of trading services through its newly launched UAE website, which offers content in both Arabic and English. This local gateway is designed to simplify the registration process, present product information clearly, and guide clients through the resources available to them.
So, new clients joining XM in the UAE can expect a streamlined onboarding experience, access to multiple trading products and tools, and a strong focus on education and customer assistance. Through this expansion, XM aims to bring its global offering closer to traders in a region with growing demand for regulated, accessible trading services.
