Monetary Metals Meets with DMCC Executive Chairman and CEO Ahmed Bin Sulayem

September 2024

We were honored recently to meet with the Executive Chairman and CEO of DMCC, Ahmed Bin Sulayem. For more than two decades, Mr. Bin Sulayem has charted a visionary course that has brought DMCC to a position of global leadership as a powerhouse that now represents 15% of Dubai’s foreign direct investment and 7% of its GDP.

Monetary Metals selected the Dubai Multi-Commodities Centre (DMCC) as the natural legal and licensing home for our U.A.E. subsidiary. DMCC was ranked as the world’s #1 free trade zone by The Financial Times for nine years in a row, and leads the country, region, and indeed the world as a major international business district and global hub for commodities trade.

Also joining the meeting were several of Mr. Bin Sulayem’s key executives, including Mohammed Mohammed, Regional Representative, Americas & Oceania; Sudheesh Nambiath, Manager, Precious Metals; Tynoor Khan, Head of Global Sales, Dubai Gold & Commodities Exchange (DGCX); and Marwan Elmasri, Senior Executive, Special Projects.

The meeting with Mr. Bin Sulayem covered many of the topics addressed in the DMCC Future of Trade Report 2024. Of particular interest was the discussion around the potential to close the widening trade finance gap using innovative precious metals financing solutions like those provided by Monetary Metals.

We would like to thank Mr. Bin Sulayem for his gracious hospitality and we look forward to a successful relationship as a DMCC licensee and member of the DMCC community.
