Multi-asset brokerage firm IUX announced on October 28, 2026, that its UAE-registered entity, IUX Mena Financial Consultation L.L.C., had obtained a regulatory license from the United Arab Emirates’ Capital Market Authority (CMA).
The approval forms part of the company’s strategy to expand its presence across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) through locally regulated operations.
IUX said the development would support its efforts to extend its trading technology and financial services infrastructure to a broader regional market.
The company also identified regulatory compliance and financial safeguards as priorities in its expansion strategy, including measures relating to the segregation and protection of client funds.
The announcement did not specify the license number or the particular financial activities authorized under the UAE approval. The scope of services permitted to the regional entity is therefore determined by its specific regulatory authorization, rather than the broader activities of the IUX group.
Established in 2016, IUX provides multi-asset brokerage services and trading technology designed for financial market participants. Its offerings include low-latency trade execution and customizable tools supporting high-volume trading strategies.
The group also operates through regulated entities in other jurisdictions, including Mauritius and Australia. Its Mauritius entity, IUX Markets (MU) Ltd., holds an investment dealer license from the Financial Services Commission, while IUX Markets AU Pty. Ltd. holds an Australian financial services license.
The UAE authorization adds to IUX’s international regulatory presence as the company pursues further business development across the MENA region.
