Abu Dhabi | EcoPulse24

Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) and Al Ramz Capital have announced the launch of a new regional investment initiative, the 'Al Ramz Investment and Trading Competition.' This first-of-its-kind competition in the region aims to boost investment literacy and strategic financial planning skills, offering monthly prizes of up to 1 million Etihad Guest Miles.

The initiative is a collaborative effort to promote long-term saving culture and enhance trading skills among investors of various experience levels. Participants can access market data reports, daily performance of listed companies on ADX, and investment insights published on the exchange’s website, supporting knowledge-based trading strategies.

Monthly prizes include:
- First prize: 1,000,000 Etihad Guest Miles per month
- Second to tenth place: 100,000 to 500,000 miles monthly

Winners are determined using the time-weighted return (TWR) metric, which measures investment performance regardless of capital size, ensuring equal opportunity. The competition runs once per month for three months and is open to all investors with an active Al Ramz Capital trading account, with no minimum investment required. Performance can be tracked anonymously via a dedicated online portal.

The initiative also highlights the strength of ADX-listed companies, which distributed AED 74 billion in cash dividends in 2025 - a 9.4% year-on-year increase - reflecting Abu Dhabi’s robust economic fundamentals.

EcoPulse24 Analysis:
The initiative represents a strategic shift from short-term speculative trading to a practical educational platform that rewards efficiency over capital size. The use of TWR enhances transparency and risk management, as ADX maintains growth in dividends and institutional performance. Linking financial literacy to tangible incentives like Etihad Guest Miles is a smart behavioral approach, likely to expand retail investor participation and improve market engagement over the medium term.
