Backed by institutional capital. Built by experienced professionals who saw an opportunity to raise the standard.
Meridian Group Markets was founded in early 2026 by a team of former institutional traders, fintech engineers, and compliance specialists with a shared vision: to build a brokerage that meets the standards the industry has long promised but rarely delivered.
We're headquartered in Dubai — DIFC, to be specific — and currently in the process of securing regulatory licences in Mauritius and the UAE. We're deliberately lean — a 40-person team focused on execution. Decisions are made quickly, product updates ship weekly, and every team member has direct ownership over what they build.
We closed a $12M seed round backed by a consortium of private investors from the Gulf region and a London-based fintech fund. That capital is allocated directly to technology, liquidity infrastructure, and regulatory compliance — the foundations that matter most.
Our ambition is not to be the largest broker — it's to be the one that earns the trust of every client we serve.
Incorporated in DIFC, Dubai. Core team assembled from industry veterans across retail brokerage and tier-1 liquidity providers.
Closed funding from Gulf-based private investors and a London fintech venture fund.
Regulatory licence applications submitted in Mauritius (FSC) and Dubai. Compliance infrastructure being built in parallel.
WebTrader beta launched to early-access traders. Onboarding liquidity providers and testing execution stack.
Full launch with copy trading, IB program, and prop trading evaluation — pending regulatory approvals.
MT5 integration. Additional jurisdictions. Scaling the prop trading program. Hiring across engineering and partnerships.
The principles that guide every decision we make, from product design to client relationships.
Weekly product releases and rapid issue resolution. Our lean structure allows us to respond to market needs and client feedback faster than established competitors.
Our spreads are our spreads. No markup games, no hidden swap tricks, no variable commissions that shift during volatility.
We don't treat regulation as a cost center. Our compliance team sits with product and engineering — because trust is the product.
We measure success by client satisfaction and retention, not account numbers. Our focus is on building lasting relationships with active, engaged traders.
Our $12M seed round is purpose-driven capital. It funds three things: technology infrastructure capable of institutional-grade execution, regulatory licences in the jurisdictions that matter, and enough liquidity runway to offer the trading conditions we promise.
Our investors include family offices from the UAE and Saudi Arabia, a London-based fintech fund with deep brokerage expertise, and several angel investors who are former C-suite executives at regulated brokers. Their involvement extends beyond capital — they bring strategic relationships and deep industry expertise.
We're currently pursuing regulatory licences in Mauritius and the UAE, with a Series A planned to fund expansion into additional jurisdictions and scale our prop trading program.
