Expanding its reach to the region: AMANA CAPITAL poised as “Silver Sponsor” to the 8th Middle East Forex Trading Expo and Conference, Dubai

Dubai, 29 March 2011:  Amana Capital, a leading Forex Trading company based in Lebanon, marked its entrance to the regional trading marketplace by poising as the Silver Sponsor of the 8th Middle East Forex Trading Expo and Conference, held on the 8th and 9th of April 2011, in Dubai.

After officially launching in Lebanon in September 2010, Amana Capital has achieved outstanding results in the local market, which jumpstarted the company’s ambition to penetrate the regional market through one of its most prominent financial gates. However, what mostly encouraged Amana Capital to expand its reach to the region was that almost 50% of Amana Capital’s business has been generated from outside Lebanon during the past months.

In addition, Amana Capital’s leadership team, with over 50 years of combined experience in prominent regional and global financial institutions, has been able to apply best international and regional practices in servicing its MENA client base. Believing in its regional potential, the company even adopted a corporate vision stipulating its positioning as a regional player in the Forex industry by providing a real competitive edge through a trustworthy and professional trading platform.

Unlike other European and American Forex Trading companies in the region, Amana Capital has its headquarters strongly rooted in the Middle East and primary focus on MENA customers. This undoubtedly empowered the company with a better understanding of the regional customers’ mind set and financial needs while better knowing how to assist them and paying attention to their needs.

Indeed, Amana Capital’s focus is on providing the best user experience through offering a service that is adapted to regional and local needs and considerations. The company’s range of customized services include local customer service and dealing room, local wire transfer with fast deposit and withdrawal possibilities in addition to credit card funding options.

Yet, Amana Capital’s competitive edge does not stop here. Regulated by the highly renowned Central Bank of Lebanon, the company’s management and highly qualified team are committed to providing current and potential investors with an outstanding trading experience that fits their specific needs wherever they are in the Middle East.

With such strong offerings and added value, Amana Capital was attractively positioned within the 8th Middle East Forex Trading Expo and Conference. In this line, Amana Capital showcased in Dubai its latest products and services including a new service launched consisting of a mobile trading application, where customers will have the option of trading on the go from their mobile phones. The company also forecasted to introduce a new web

 trading application where customers will have the additional option of trading via the web rather than through the current desktop solution.

The company has also introduced new products including European indices (CAC 40, DAX, FTSE, etc) and single equity CFDS on large cap US companies (GE, Procter & Gamble, Microsoft, etc).
