Rabi Al Yassin, business development and general manager<\/strong> at Axi<\/strong>: <\/strong>Each week, My Morning Routine looks at how a successful member of the community starts their day \u2014 and then throws in a couple of random business questions just for fun. Speaking to us this week is Rabi Al Yassin (LinkedIn<\/a>), business development and general manager at Axi. Edited excerpts from our conversation:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m Rabi Al Yassin, and I'm the general manager of Axi\u2019s Dubai office.<\/strong> I've been with Axi for the past 15 years, and in the industry for more than 20 years, and I'm now managing the Dubai sales team and leading Axi\u2019s growth in the Middle East and North Africa region. <\/p>\n

Axi has been an online broker since 2007. <\/strong>We\u2019re regulated with the Dubai Financial Services Authority, Australia\u2019s ASIC, and the Financial Conduct Authority in London. Our platform offers trading in products like contract for differences (CFDs), metals like gold and silver, commodities like crude oil and natural gas, currencies, and stocks as well. We\u2019ve been adding DFM stocks recently, like Salik, Dewa, and Emaar, so some of the most tradable products in the Dubai financial market. <\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been around for a long time.<\/strong> I remember when we used to participate in expos, we were one of perhaps 40 or 50 brokers present \u2014 now it\u2019s always over 200 brokers at any event. Competition is always great, so we see that as a positive. <\/p>\n

The Securities and Commodities Authority\u2019s easing of regulation, along with the ease of setting up, has really helped to propel the industry<\/strong> and registrations of global brokerages. The government has created a very supportive and attractive environment for them to come and set up shop here. <\/p>\n

In addition to that, the increasing population and the status of the UAE as a financial hub and safe place for high-net-worth individuals\u2019 investments<\/strong>, also makes it a great time for brokerages in the UAE. <\/p>\n

People are really watching volatility in markets and following that<\/strong>, so we\u2019ve seen big moves recently in gold, for example. When it comes to CFDs, people are looking for a short-term investment, so there\u2019s a bit more speculation than when it comes to long-term investments. <\/p>\n

Online platforms and trading have also meant that investors are getting less patient<\/strong> \u2014 they don\u2019t spend too long with market analysis and studying the charts like in the past. Now we\u2019re seeing a lot of our clients recently rely on AI for their analysis. We\u2019ve created our own solutions to help clients with that, allowing them to integrate their AI advisors into our platform. <\/p>\n

The problem with that is the analysis you get is always only as good as your input<\/strong>, so investors won\u2019t always get the most accurate analysis or the most profitable \u2014 they have to refine their own prompts and data that they\u2019ve input for their AI advisors to get better results. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m definitely a morning person.<\/strong> I wake up early and go to the gym, and then I go to the office and check the local and international news, and look at the numbers from the previous day and months. If there\u2019s any urgent client-related requests, I do those, and then I start going to meetings for strategy and planning. And then I usually end the day the same way I start it, by looking at numbers. <\/p>\n

One thing that never changes is taking care of my team and making sure they\u2019re energized and excited. <\/strong>I like to also make sure the environment in the office is healthy and supportive for them to perform well. I\u2019m a strong believer that human beings are the main driver behind any success, and taking care of the team and making sure they are comfortable will always reflect well for our clients and their interactions with them. <\/p>\n

I'm married and have three boys, so after my workday\u2019s done, spending time with the family is the best way to disconnect<\/strong> for me. I also enjoy history a lot, and I think to know the future and to be ready for it, you have to learn from the past. In our industry, looking at charts is basically history. We can analyze how price movement in the past has looked and based on that, be able to more accurately predict how things might change in the future. <\/p>\n

One piece of advice I have is to always learn from your mistakes and from others\u2019 mistakes<\/strong>, and always focus on learning. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
