1. Setting up NIN 

Before you can start trading shares on the ADX, you first need to obtain a National Investor Number (NIN). If you don’t have one, you can obtain your unique NIN through an accredited brokerage firm, the Sahmi app, or ADX’s customer service centers. Through this number, all transactions on the Exchange can be initiated including clearing, settlement, and trading transactions.

2. Appointing broker and opening trading account 

To begin trading in ADNOC Distribution’s shares, you need to open a trading account with a brokerage firm registered with the ADX - if you don’t have one, such as FAB Securities, International Securities, Al Ramz capital, Emirates NBD Securities, ADCB Securities, ADIB Securities, BH Capital Financial Services, etc. This account will act as your gateway to the stock market, allowing you to buy and sell shares of various companies, including ADNOC Distribution.
To appoint a broker to carry out your trades, review and select a licensed brokerage firm from the ADX official website, communicate with the chosen firm and provide the necessary information. You may also be able to trade through your bank’s website, application, or branch. 

3. Making your first trade 

You can start trading by placing orders to buy and sell shares and monitor share movements through the ADX's trading screens, official website and mobile app, ADNOC Distribution investor relations website or the online or mobile trading platforms offered by brokerage firms. You can enter orders directly via these platforms or, if you prefer a more hands-on approach, opt for broker-assisted trading services provided by your brokerage firm.
