Nasdaq Dubai Welcomes Unique Shariah-Compliant Gold Listing,
by Lorys Charalambous, Tax-News.com, Cyprus
Tuesday, March 03, 2009
NASDAQ Dubai on March 2 welcomed the listing of Dubai Gold Securities (DGS)
on its exchange. The security is a unique Shariah-compliant product that gives
investors a straightforward route to gain exposure to the price of gold.
DGS can be bought and sold on NASDAQ Dubai just like shares, through one of
the exchange's 29 regional and international trading Members, or through a broker
that has a relationship with a NASDAQ Dubai trading Member, noted the Nasdaq
Dubai release.
DGS are an initiative of the World Gold Council (WGC) and the Dubai Multi
Commodities Centre. Similar gold securities have been listed through WGC initiatives
on 12 other international exchanges, with gold in trust exceeding 1,200 tonnes.
DGS are the only ones listed in the Middle East to have been declared Shariah-compliant
by a Shariah Supervisory Board.
Jeff Singer, Chief Executive of NASDAQ Dubai, said: "NASDAQ Dubai is
already an established platform for Shariah products and is delighted to welcome
today its first Shariah-compliant gold securities.”
"As a traditional trading hub for gold in the Middle East, Dubai is a
natural venue for listing innovative Shariah-compliant gold products. DGS offer
investors an alternative to physical gold and gold futures."
NASDAQ Dubai has a higher value of listed Sukuk (Shariah-compliant bonds)
than any other exchange, at USD16.4bn.
