DGCX and FOW in partnership

Dubai - The Dubai Gold and Commodities Exchange, or DGCX, partnered with Futures and Options World, or FOW, for its Trading Middle East Conference 2015 on Thursday.

As the first Middle East event organised by FOW, the conference showcased insightful presentations, discussions and debates from regional and international subject matter experts, which touched upon analysis of Middle East trading patterns, developing regional benchmarks and increasing participation in Middle Eastern derivatives markets from a global perspective.
Over 200 local and global delegates attended the event, including members from the Singapore Exchange, Moscow Exchange, Dalian Commodity Exchange, Dubai Mercantile Exchange and leading UAE financial institutions, as well as international participants like ICBC, Bank of China and Standard Chartered.
"The Middle East is now firmly established on the map of the global derivatives markets, so it is good to see FOW making its mark with its inaugural conference here in Dubai, which continues to be the financial pivot of the region. We are pleased to host such an important event. The conversations that have taken place... have been particularly insightful, and will contribute to the way this industry will move forward here in the Middle East," said Gaurang Desai, CEO of the DGCX.
