Business Set Up in ADGM

The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) free zone is the financial centre of Abu Dhabi, the capital city of the United Arab Emirates. Initially created for financial services, it has expanded into a broad range of professional and business services. It stands out from other free zones because it has its own civil and commercial laws.

 

Entrepreneurs from around the region select this free zone because they have confidence in the legal system that underpins it. ADGM Courts are modeled on the English & Welsh judicial system. The direct application of English common law makes ADGM the first jurisdiction in the GCC to adopt a similar approach to that of other global financial centres such as Singapore and Hong Kong.

 

 

ADGM commercial license holders can also apply for a license issued by the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (AD DED). This authorizes them to conduct business activities outside the borders of the free zone without maintaining additional facilities in mainland Abu Dhabi.
