Investors in UAE stock markets need to set up a National Investor Number, often referred to as a NIN, which is a unique number enabling investors to trade any securities that are listed on NASDAQ Dubai or other UAE exchanges in their own name. If you want to apply for a NIN, you can visit the NASDAQ Dubai website or contact your broker to apply.

REITs are primarily aimed at investments in income-generating properties, providing investors with the opportunity to access the real estate asset class. REITs typically provide their shareholders exposure to a variety of real estate assets through a single investment instrument.
There are four key benefits to investing in a REIT. First, there is the flexibility of adjusting the amount you invest to suit your financial resources. Second, you can access a portfolio of properties with diverse income streams, rather than relying on a single property/asset. Third, REIT investors tend to have better access to liquidity, because trading shares in a REIT on the public markets is generally easier, cheaper and faster than selling a physical real estate asset. Finally, investing in a REIT is simple; owning shares in a REIT is straight-forward and pays a dividend.
ENBD REIT is listed on Nasdaq Dubai, under ticker symbol ENBDREIT. For more information, contact Investor Relations, Emirates NBD Securities, or your preferred broker.
ENBD REIT shares are listed in USD. Please contact your broker for further details regarding foreign currencies.
