Our goal is simple: to give people a simple, intelligent way to grow their wealth while staying true to their beliefs. As a Muslim, I\u2019m honoured to support others in investing with confidence through portfolios that are Shariah-compliant, globally diversified and built on data.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Values-based investing has demonstrated competitive long-term performance.<\/p>\n<p>Major Shariah equity indices, including the S&amp;P 500 Shariah Index and the Dow Jones Islamic Market World Index, have outperformed their conventional counterparts over the past decade.<\/p>\n<p>For example, the Shariah S&amp;P 500 Index has increased approximately fourfold over the past ten years, compared with around 3.6 times growth for the conventional S&amp;P 500 Index (S&amp;P Global, as of 30 June 2025).<\/p>\n<p>StashAway\u2019s Shariah Global Portfolio has recorded five-year annualised historical returns ranging from 7% to 13.7%, depending on the selected risk level.<\/p>\n<p>The portfolios are suitable for both new and experienced investors and aim to provide diversification without unnecessary complexity.<\/p>\n<p>They are built using low-cost Shariah-compliant ETFs, offering exposure to global equities, sukuk, and gold, including high-growth sectors such as global technology and emerging markets.<\/p>\n<p>Portfolios are professionally managed and dynamically re-optimised by StashAway, seeking to maximise returns across economic cycles while maintaining the chosen risk level.<\/p>\n<p>The underlying holdings are certified Shariah-compliant by their issuers or fund managers.<\/p>\n<p>The launch of the Shariah Global Portfolio adds to StashAway\u2019s wider suite of investment and cash management solutions, which are designed around transparency.<\/p>\n<p>The portfolio follows the same management fee structure as other StashAway offerings, ranging from 0.2% to 0.8% per annum, with no lock-ins or minimum investment.<\/p>\n<p>Integration with Lean allows clients to set up recurring investments within minutes, facilitating long-term wealth building.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stashaway.ae\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">StashAway<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/fintechnews.ae\/27589\/fintechdubai\/stashaway-shariah-global-portfolio-uae\/\">StashAway Launches Shariah-compliant Global Portfolios in UAE<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/fintechnews.ae\/\">Fintechnews Middle East<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>StashAway, a digital investment platform, has introduced its Shariah Global Portfolio in the UAE.
