WAM | DFSA and NASDAQ Dubai announce Transfer of the Official List of Securities

The Dubai Financial Services Authority ("DFSA") and NASDAQ Dubai today announce that with effect from 1 October 2011 the responsibility for maintaining the Official List of Securities will be transferred from NASDAQ Dubai to the DFSA (the "Transfer").

The Transfer will result in the streamlining of the regulatory process for approving prospectuses and listing, for the benefit of issuers and investors. It is also in line with international best practice.

NASDAQ Dubai will continue to be exclusively responsible for the admittance to trading of securities on its market and its role as an Authorised Market Institution licensed to operate an exchange and clearing house remains unchanged.
