The cost could be 20 to 30% less than other personal loans that the customer was getting in the past in order to finance buying of shares.

The launch of this program comes in line with the optimistic expectations in financial sector that the stock markets in the U.A.E. are doing well during this year to the extent that it exceeds the achievements of last year. These expectations are backed by many positive factors in the local market, amongst which are the increase in oil prices and the average liquid cash in the banks, in addition to the increase in the value of spending on construction projects in the country, which lead to the increase in the price of real estate companies’ shares.

A Bank official said " ‘Tadawol’ is considered to be the first product that cares about financing shares, and at the same time adheres to the venerable Islamic Sharea, with costs as low as 20-30% less than other personal loans. It also provides brokerage services during rush hours through its Hot Line".
