UAE Companies Reaffirm Operational Resilience and Strong Financial Health Amid Rising Regional Geopolitical Tensions

Major companies across Abu Dhabi and Dubai have reaffirmed the resilience of their operations and financial positions despite the recent outbreak of hostilities in the Gulf region. Firms spanning finance, technology, logistics, and aviation told the markets on Wednesday that business continues as usual, underlining confidence in their ability to navigate uncertainty.

Entities listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) and Dubai Financial Market (DFM), including Investcorp Capital, Presight AI Holding, Dubai Aerospace Enterprise (DAE), Al Wathba National Insurance Company (AWNIC), and Hily Holding, assured stakeholders that they remain fully operational.

While some acknowledged that heightened geopolitical tensions could trigger short-term market volatility, they emphasized that their strong portfolio positions and the UAE’s stable market environment provide a solid foundation for resilience.

“While heightened geopolitical tensions may create short-term volatility, ICAP’s diversified global portfolio and disciplined investment approach position us to navigate uncertainty with resilience,” said Investcorp Capital.

The two UAE stock exchanges had been closed for two days following the outbreak of hostilities on 28 February 2026, reopening on Wednesday. Although the majority of stocks ended lower, companies affirmed that there has been no material impact on their balance sheets or liquidity.

Across sectors, companies are closely monitoring the situation to ensure the ongoing safety of assets and staff, while reassuring investors that the UAE market remains a stable and secure environment for business.
