Mitrade Expands MENA Presence with Launch of Arabic Trading Platform
Mitrade Group, a globally licensed CFD broker, has launched its Arabic-language trading platform to meet rising demand from investors across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The new platform marks a major milestone in Mitrade’s regional engagement, offering a localized, accessible gateway to global markets as retail participation in commodities, forex, and indices surges.
The launch comes as gold prices reach historic highs in 2025, driven by geopolitical tensions, inflation concerns, and currency fluctuations. According to the World Gold Council, global gold prices rose 26% in the first half of 2025, with UAE markets setting a record 26 new price highs in six months. This surge has drawn growing interest from retail traders viewking short-term exposure through flexible instruments like CFDs.
“Retail traders are no longer passive participants — their trading activity reflects evolving sentiment and short-term reactions to changing market conditions,” said Kevin Lai, Vice President at Mitrade Group. “Amid geopolitical tensions and rapid price shifts, Mitrade offers reliable infrastructure and localized support for informed trading.”

Bringing Local Language, Global Access, and Trusted Infrastructure
Mitrade’s expansion underscores its commitment to democratizing access to international markets through intuitive technology and local-language support. The Arabic platform integrates seamlessly with the broker’s award-winning multi-asset system, offering the identical trading experience available in English and other major languages — complete with real-time analytics, educational resources, and 24/7 customer service for Arabic-speaking traders.
“Global market access has long reflected institutional priorities, leaving independent traders overlooked,” Lai added. “We aim to make trading more accessible through a transparent, regulated environment where traders can engage confidently.”
By bridging global liquidity with localized user experiences, Mitrade aims to strengthen its footprint across key MENA markets — from the UAE and Saudi Arabia to Egypt and Morocco. The platform will serve traders looking to capitalize on opportunities in commodities, forex, and equity indices, supported by competitive spreads and responsive risk tools.
Takeaway
Award-Winning Expansion and Global Regulation
The launch follows Mitrade’s recognition as “Best New CFD Broker MENA 2025” by World Business Star Magazine, reaffirming its leadership in regulated expansion and innovation. In October 2025, Mitrade strengthened its global compliance footprint by securing FSCA licensing in South Africa through the acquisition of Fridah Asset Managers Pty Ltd — adding to its portfolio of international licenses.
Today, Mitrade operates under regulatory oversight from five major jurisdictions: South Africa’s FSCA (FSP 54842), Cayman Islands’ CIMA (SIB1612446), Mauritius’s FSC (GB20025791), Australia’s ASIC (AFSL398528), and Cyprus’s CySEC (CIF438/23). The broker connects over six million users to more than 800 OTC derivatives, including indices, forex, commodities, ETFs, and shares.
As gold, oil, and currency markets experience heightened volatility, Mitrade’s regional growth strategy positions it to meet the demand of traders viewking regulated, transparent, and culturally attuned trading environments.
