| What kind of business?
To trade local shares, you probably need to be here to set up an account (and have a residence visa).
To be a stock broker, I think you need AED 50 million capital and speaking Arabic would be important (it's probably a requirement).
For other markets, search for information about DIFX, DGCX... |

| Was told by helpdesk people at DFM that investor number can be obtained even without a resident visa but copy of the passport need to be provided. (I do not a trade in DFM). Further as per my info the shares can be purchased only upto the level allowed for non nationals, if at all the limit is still not reached.
Would be happy to know further details on this. |

The stocks that are allowed for outsiders are allowed up to a certain level, that can be between 20 and 49%.
Hope that helps and good luck. |

Good to hear, I didn't know that.

If you don't trade DFM, then you're looking at ADSM?
Most foreign ownership proportions are well below the limit (ARTC is the only one I remember that's at the limit).
Here's a list that allow foreign ownership - up to date as of late 2005, there's a few more since then. More up to date list is at www.dubaisharetalk.com . Occasionally shares say foreign ownership allowed but it's restricted to GCC nationals.
