Mashreq Securities at a glance
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.
Mashreq Securities reports a founding year of 21-07-2001 and a head office in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It lists 1 regulator and 2 trading platforms.
BrokerBazaar 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
Legal entities, regulation and licences
Mashreq Securities operates through 1 legal entity, each supervised separately. Your account is with one specific entity, so the protections you receive depend on which one onboards you, not on the group's strongest licence. Overall, the group is supervised by no regulator we could map to a public register.
