The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the emirate’s international financial hub, experienced remarkable growth in the first half of 2025, with a 42% increase in registered firms over the previous year. The number of active firms increased to 2,972 by June 30, from 2,381 at the end of December 2024, indicating Abu Dhabi’s growing appeal as a financial destination.
Assets under management increased by 42% from last June, with 154 asset and fund managers currently overseeing 209 funds. Global players continue to expand in the hub, attracted by its strategic position, regulatory framework under English Common Law, and access to Abu Dhabi’s sovereign wealth funds, which collectively oversee about $2 trillion.
Abu Dhabi, which controls 90% of the UAE’s oil reserves, is stepping up diversification efforts outside hydrocarbons. The emirate has become more appealing to high-net-worth individuals and businesses because of its tax-free policies, ease of doing business, and strong post-pandemic recovery.
Simultaneously, Dubai International Financial Centre reported a 25% year-on-year increase, with 7,700 firms operational by mid-2025, highlighting the UAE’s expanding status as a regional financial powerhouse.
