It is a great honor to stand before you today as we celebrate the listing of our Global Xtrackers Al Salam Sukuk ETF on the London Stock Exchange.
This moment marks a significant milestone, not only for DWS and Al Salam Bank but also for the broader Islamic finance community.
The launch of this ETF reflects our shared vision: to provide investors with innovative, Sharia-compliant solutions that combine transparency, accessibility, and global diversification. Sukuk instruments have long played a vital role in sustainable and ethical investing, and through this ETF, we are proud to make them more accessible to a wider audience.
We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to ASB Capital for their invaluable collaboration throughout this journey. Your expertise and commitment have been instrumental in bringing this project to life.
Today’s success also coincides with another important milestone for DWS: the establishment of our presence in Abu Dhabi. This strategic move strengthens our commitment to the region and reinforces our ambition to serve investors across the Middle East with world-class solutions.
