Company Insights Borse Dubai Finance Borse Dubai Overview Borse Dubai is a stock exchange in the UAE and the holding company for Dubai Financial Market (DFM) and Nasdaq Dubai. It has an 81 percent stake in DFM and a 33 percent direct stake and 67 percent holding via DFM in Nasdaq Dubai. It is owned by Investment Corporation of Dubai, the principal investment arm of the government of Dubai. Borse Dubai was created in 2007 to consolidate Dubai’s two stock exchanges and Dubai’s investments in other stock exchanges. A month after it was founded, as part of a deal with the US’s Nasdaq Inc over control of the Swedish exchange and telecommunications operator OMX, Borse Dubai won 28 percent of London Stock Exchange Group. That stake was later sold off, with the final tranche of 17 percent disposed of in 2015. Borse Dubai currently owns just over 10 percent of Nasdaq Inc stock.
