The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), the independent regulator of banking, financial services, and markets within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), confirmed that Nasdaq Dubai will remain closed on Monday, March 2 and Tuesday, March 3, 2026.

Nasdaq Dubai, the international financial exchange headquartered in the DIFC, provides a platform for regional and global investors to trade equities, derivatives, sukuk, and conventional bonds. The exchange plays a key role in connecting Middle Eastern markets with international capital flows.

In its official statement, the DFSA emphasized that it continues to closely monitor developments in the region and remains in regular contact with local authorities and relevant advisories.

The temporary suspension is described as a precautionary step aimed at ensuring market stability and investor confidence during the period.

Market participants are advised to stay updated through official announcements from Nasdaq Dubai and the DFSA regarding the resumption of trading activities. Further guidance is expected should there be any changes to the current schedule.
