Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates: The Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) Group, the second largest stock exchange in the Arab region, and Al Ramz Capital today announced the winners of the first ‘Al Ramz Investment and Trading Competition’.

This landmark initiative was created to encourage strategic financial planning, develop a long-term savings and investment culture, and support the UAE’s Year of Family 2026 objectives by creating more informed investors.

Investors executed their investment knowledge and trading strategies and skills in the March competition. Al Ramz will also run new competitions in April and May, reflecting the strong interest in financial literacy and capital markets.

The competition offered a top prize of 1 million Etihad Guest Miles—enough for several first-class flights to destinations such as New York and London. The interactive initiative enhanced the financial literacy of the participants and their capabilities within a competitive environment that reflects real market conditions.
