The prestigious national recognition celebrates the company’s leadership in advancing Emiratisation and empowering Emirati talent across the private sector.

This achievement reaffirms Al Fardan Exchange’s position as a benchmark for Emiratisation excellence in the UAE, driven by its sustained efforts to hire, train, and retain Emirati professionals across all seven emirates. Through structured career development, mentorship, and leadership programs, UAE Nationals now serve in key customer-facing, operational, and management roles across the organisation.

“Receiving this honour for the second year in a row is both humbling and deeply meaningful, as it reaffirms our commitment to nurturing Emirati professionals and empowering them to shape the nation’s future.
