The Premier International Commodity Exchange in the Middle East DME (Dubai Mercantile Exchange) has a distinguished history of providing robust and reliable commodity trading solutions. Established in 2007, DME was founded with the vision of creating a premier commodities marketplace in the Middle East.

Launched in June 2007 as a joint venture between Dubai Holding, Oman Investment Authority, and CME Group, DME aimed to bring fair and transparent price discovery and efficient risk management to the East of Suez. The Oman Crude Oil Futures Contract (DME Oman) became its flagship contract, providing the most transparent crude oil benchmark for the region. DME Oman serves as the exclusive benchmark for Oman and Dubai crude oil Official Selling Prices (OSPs), historically crucial markers for Middle Eastern crude oil exports to Asia.

In addition to Oman (2007) and Dubai (2009), Saudi Aramco (2018), Bahrain Petroleum Company (2018), and Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (2020) have committed to using DME Oman in their pricing formulas.

In 2024, Saudi Tadawul Group (STG) acquired a strategic stake in DME, to create GME (Gulf Mercantile Exchange) (from 2 September 2024). This strategic move leverages world-class capabilities and expertise, propelling the exchange’s growth as a regional commodities leader poised to meet global commodities demand.
