AE FR / API · United Arab Emirates

Build on United Arab Emirates filings programmatically.

A typed REST API over 72,540 filings from 350 Emirati listed companies — JSON metadata, Markdown body, and original PDF. Webhooks on every new release.

Public-company filings in United Arab Emirates are supervised by Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA). Reporting follows IFRS. Filings are most commonly published in Arabic and English. Major issuers are listed on ADX General and DFM General. Calendar year.

Building on UAE filings programmatically

The FinancialReports API delivers UAE regulatory filings — from both ADX and DFM — through the standard unified endpoint. A ?country=AE filter scopes queries to UAE issuers. Volume is lower than larger markets (~130 listed companies), generating approximately 200–500 filings per month depending on reporting season, but the per-filing significance is high given the concentrated, mega-cap nature of the market.

Webhook subscriptions deliver UAE filings within minutes of exchange publication. UAE market disclosure follows ADX/DFM trading hours (10:00–14:00 GST, UTC+4, Sunday through Thursday — note the non-standard trading week). The webhook payload schema is market-agnostic; the Sunday–Thursday trading week is the primary structural difference for integration scheduling logic. UAE's mandatory dual-language (Arabic + English) disclosure means the platform indexes the English-language version — immediately consumable by global NLP pipelines.

Filing content is available as JSON metadata, Markdown (extracted from English-language PDFs), and original source documents. Common API integrations include FTSE ADX 15 constituent monitoring, GCC banking sector quarterly comparison (FAB, Emirates NBD alongside Saudi and Qatari banks), ADNOC group entity tracking (multiple listed subsidiaries with interlocking corporate actions), UAE REIT and real estate cycle monitoring, Islamic finance disclosure tracking, and sovereign-wealth-adjacent holding company analysis (IHC, Alpha Dhabi disclosure patterns).
