IN’P leads 100% of UAE public equity offerings in 2026 to date as DIP Holding rings the DFM bell
DIP Holding’s AED 1.94 billion listing marks the UAE’s first and only IPO of 2026 to date, underscoring investor confidence in the UAE economy amid regional conflict
Dubai, UAE — 11 November 2026 — IN’P IBRAHIM .N. PARTNERS (IN’P) today marked the listing of DIP Holding PLC on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) at the opening bell ceremony. With the listing, IN’P has led the legal work on 100% of the UAE’s public equity offerings launched in 2026 to date, acting on all three transactions by deal count.
IN’P led the legal work on DIP Holding’s AED 1.94 billion IPO, the UAE’s first and only IPO this year, as well as Sharjah Islamic Bank’s AED 2.59 billion rights issue and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank’s AED 1.75 billion rights issue, which opened for subscription on 10 November. Together, the three offerings represent approximately AED 6.28 billion in announced transaction value.
DIP Holding’s listing comes amid regional conflict and a challenging backdrop for IPO activity. The offering brought a business rooted in Dubai’s real economy to the public market. Dubai Investments Park brings together industrial, logistics, commercial and residential activity, and its listing gives investors exposure to sectors central to the UAE’s diversified economy.
Ahmed Ibrahim, Managing Partner of IN’P, said
“Today’s bell ringing matters because it shows what the UAE’s capital markets can deliver even amid regional conflict. An established business at the heart of Dubai’s industrial and logistics economy came to market in the UAE’s only IPO this year. That speaks to the strength of the UAE economy and to investors’ confidence in its long-term prospects.
“We are proud to have led the legal work on every public equity offering launched in the UAE this year to date. From Sharjah Islamic Bank’s rights issue, which opened the UAE equity market in 2026, to ADIB’s rights issue and today’s DIP Holding listing, we have helped issuers access the public markets across both DFM and ADX.”
