Investor Relations

Incorporated in 1997, Dubai-based Emaar Properties PJSC is one of the world’s largest real-estate companies by market capitalisation. Emaar was listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) in March 2000 and became one of the first companies on the DFM to open its capital to foreign nationals.

In June 2004, the Company split the share’s nominal value from AED 10 to AED 1 per share to enhance and protect the interests of the shareholders and the company by allowing the shares to be available and affordable to investors. In July 2005, Emaar doubled the capital of the Company through a 1:1 rights issue.
In line with its “Vision 2010”, Emaar is charting a new course of growth with a two-pronged strategy of geographical expansion and business segmentation. Replicating its successful business model in Dubai, Emaar is extending its expertise in creating master-planned communities to international markets beyond Dubai. Simultaneously, Emaar is developing new competencies in malls, hospitality and leisure, education, healthcare, finance and industry, which have evolved from its holistic approach to customer service and property development. Emaar is en route to becoming one of the most valuable companies in the world by 2010.

Today, Emaar’s investments in developments beyond Dubai exceed US$65 billion. Emaar has established operations in 17 markets:

As a group constituting six business segments and over 60 active companies, Emaar has built a collective presence in 36 markets spanning the Middle East-North African (MENA) region, the Indian subcontinent, Asia, Europe and North America.

While continuing to actively pursue expansion in its core business of innovative, high quality real estate development, Emaar has diversified into related business lines to further build value for its shareholders, which includes the Government of Dubai. Emaar also holds equity in Dubai Bank, focused on retail and commercial banking; Amlak Finance, UAE’s leading Islamic home financing company; and Emaar Finance and Industries, which has an investment focus on high technology and light manufacturing industries in the region.
