Abu Dhabi, UAE: KraneShares, today announced the listing of two exchange-traded funds (ETFs) – the KraneShares Artificial Intelligence & Technology ETF (Ticker: AGIX) and the KraneShares Wahed Alternative Income Index ETF (Ticker: KWIN) – on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX), the second-largest exchange in the Arab region by market capitalisation.

KraneShares Artificial Intelligence & Technology ETF (Ticker: AGIX)

AGIX ETF provides exposure to both public and private artificial intelligence companies, including SpaceX and Anthropic, offering access to high-growth innovation themes and select private companies*. This exciting ETF will be directly listed on the ADX on 16 April 2026.

KraneShares Wahed Alternative Income Index ETF (Ticker: KWIN)

KWIN, developed in collaboration between KraneShares and Wahed Invest, delivers a differentiated Shari’ah-compliant income strategy beyond traditional Sukuk. The initial offering price (IOP) period to the public will commence on 15 to 21 April 2026 and the KWIN ETF will list on the ADX by the end of April 2026.

The two ETFs are cross-listed from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) further reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s position as a growing hub for globally demanded and innovative investment products.

Oceane Global will act as market maker for the ETFs, supporting liquidity provision and trading efficiency on the ADX, while Waystone will serve as legal representative in connection with the listings, ensuring regulatory alignment and structuring support.

Abdulla Salem Alnuaimi, Group CEO of the ADX Group, said:

“Today’s cross-listing marks another step forward for Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange as we expand access to global opportunities. The launch of AGIX and KWIN responds to growing demand for exposure to high-growth themes like AI, alongside income solutions aligned with regional priorities, including Shari’ah-compliant strategies. As markets evolve toward thematic investing and diversified income, the ADX is focused on staying ahead – ensuring investors can access opportunities with ease and confidence.

In March alone, the ADX saw a spike of 183% in the ADX’s ETF trade value and an almost 134% increase in the number of investors trading our suite of ETFs (YoY). Building on this momentum, we will continue to build on our position as the region’s most liquid ETF hub, working with global partners to deliver innovative products that meet investors’ changing needs.”

Jonathan Krane, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of KraneShares, said:

“The listing of the KraneShares Artificial Intelligence & Technology ETF (Ticker: AGIX) and the KraneShares Wahed Alternative Income Index ETF (Ticker: KWIN) on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange reflects growing global demand for differentiated ETF exposure. AGIX’s unique public-private structure provides access to both listed AI leaders and select private innovators, including Anthropic and SpaceX, within a single liquid ETF. At the same time, KWIN offers a Shari’ah-compliant alternative income strategy designed to generate option-based income while aligning with Islamic investment principles, expanding access for regional investors to innovative technology and income solutions through locally listed ETFs on ADX.”

Anthony Sassine, Chief Executive Officer of Oceane Global, said:

“We are pleased to expand our collaboration with KraneShares and to work alongside Waystone in bringing these innovative ETFs to ADX. This partnership reflects the importance of building a strong ETF ecosystem with the right combination of issuance, legal structuring, and liquidity provision. Our role is to ensure that these products trade efficiently and with tight spreads, enabling both institutional and retail investors in the UAE to access global investment opportunities through the local exchange.”

Caoimhghin O’Donnell, Chief Executive Officer, Waystone Management Company Middle East, said:

“We are proud to support this collaboration as legal representative for the funds. Our role is to facilitate robust structuring and regulatory alignment, helping ensure that international ETF products can be efficiently brought to market within the UAE framework. This partnership highlights the importance of coordination across issuers, market makers, and legal infrastructure providers in building a sustainable ETF ecosystem.”

These new listings build on the successful cross-listing of KraneShares’ flagship ETFs, KWEB KraneShares China ETF and KRBN KraneShares Global Carbon Credit ETF, on the ADX in December 2025, and mark another step forward in deepening the region’s capital markets infrastructure.
