Rokos Capital Management Opens New Office in Abu Dhabi

The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), known as a leading international financial center, has recently announced the opening of Rokos Capital Management (RCM)’s latest office in Abu Dhabi. Following the receipt of its Financial Services Permission (FSP) from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA), RCM sets to enhance its global presence.

Located in the iconic Sky Tower, RCM’s Abu Dhabi office expands the firm’s footprint, joining its established locations in London, New York, and Singapore. This expansion marks a significant milestone for the company as it seeks to leverage the business-friendly environment and economic stability that Abu Dhabi offers.

RCM is recognized for its multi-asset investment strategies, focusing on delivering sustainable, high-risk adjusted returns to its investors. The firm's comprehensive expertise spans major asset classes and is underpinned by a strong foundation in global macroeconomic trading.

Chris Irish, the firm’s Middle East Director and Chief Financial Officer, expressed enthusiasm about the new office: "Receiving our complete regulatory license in the ADGM is a crucial step in RCM’s growth in the region. We look forward to building on this momentum as we expand our team and strengthen our commitment to local investors and partners."

Since its establishment in 2015, ADGM has emerged as a premier financial hub in the Middle East, known for its robust legal framework aligned with international standards. This provides a level of certainty and trust for businesses and investors engaging within its jurisdiction.

ADGM continues to attract an increasing number of international financial institutions seeking to access regional and global markets. The authority's long-term strategic planning fosters a supportive environment for various business sectors, further enhancing Abu Dhabi's stature in the global economy.

Arvind Ramamurthy, Head of Market Development at ADGM, commented on the significance of RCM’s establishment in Abu Dhabi: "We congratulate Rokos Capital Management on achieving its FSP and establishing its Abu Dhabi office. The arrival of RCM further strengthens the growing ecosystem of leading global financial institutions within ADGM, supported by a transparent and outcome-focused regulatory framework. Companies that choose to set up in the ADGM region showcase strong momentum, reflecting Abu Dhabi's status as a favorable destination for global investors and as a gateway to opportunities across the region."

In summary, Rokos Capital Management’s expansion into Abu Dhabi not only signifies the firm’s growth strategy but also highlights the attractiveness of ADGM as an international financial hub. The continued development and international partnerships established by ADGM reinforce Abu Dhabi’s position as a leading global center for finance, investment, and business.
