Wio Invest, the UAE investment platform under ADQ, has reached $1 billion in Assets Under Administration (AUA) in under two years since its launch. The figure places it among the fastest-growing digital brokers globally.
Order volume has exceeded $4 billion year-to-date, driven by users investing in US tech stocks such as NVIDIA and Tesla, as well as cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and crypto-linked equities like MicroStrategy. Recurring investment in index funds is rising, indicating a shift toward long-term portfolio strategies.
Wio has broadened its marketplace beyond US equities to include UAE-listed securities, virtual assets, and wealth-managed portfolios. The new Wio Wealth feature offers zero fees until December 31, 2025 and allows penalty-free withdrawals.
Gaurav Ganwani, Deputy General Manager at Wio Securities, stated that the milestone reflects the firm’s focus on providing instant access and streamlined onboarding through its Wio Personal integration.
Regulated by the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority, Wio operates within a compliant framework under Wio Securities LLC.
Wio traces its roots to the Wio digital banking platform, launched in 2022 by ADQ, Alpha Dhabi, e&, and FAB, with an initial capital of Dh2.3 billion. ADQ, a major sovereign-wealth fund, supports its growth as part of Abu Dhabi’s digital finance strategy.
