OKX expands UAE services with tokenised US stocks and educational partnership

OKX UAE, operating under a license from the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), has launched over 80 tokenised US stocks for eligible users in the United Arab Emirates. This real-world asset (RWA) product allows users to gain 1:1 price exposure to major technology and AI companies with 24/7 trading capabilities, including weekends. The service supports fractional positions and provides economic benefits from eligible dividends, with funding handled via local UAE bank accounts in dirhams.

In a separate initiative, OKX has partnered with the Dubai-based Trust Training and Development Institute (Trust Institute) to provide free financial market education in the UAE. The collaboration offers complimentary seminars covering fundamentals such as forex, stocks, cryptocurrency, and risk management. To participate, individuals must register for a free OKX account, though no deposits or trading activities are required to attend the sessions.
