UAE’s Borouge gets included in FTSE ADX Dividend Stars Index

Borouge, the Abu Dhabi petrochemicals company, has been included in the FTSE ADX Dividend Stars Index.

The FTSE ADX Dividend Stars Index, launched by the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) in December 2025, is the first income-focused index of its kind in the region, highlighting companies with a consistent track record of dividend distribution.

The index comprises 17 companies that collectively represent more than 70 per cent of total cash dividends paid by ADX-listed companies in 2025, reinforcing its relevance as a benchmark for long-term, income-oriented investors.

Borouge’s inclusion reflects the company’s ability to generate resilient cash flows across commodity cycles, supported by its world-scale production platform and sustained demand across its core markets in Asia Pacific, the Middle East and Africa. These fundamentals help Borouge deliver stable, through-the-cycle earnings and maintain an attractive dividend profile.

Hazeem Sultan Al Suwaidi, Chief Executive Officer of Borouge, commented: “Borouge’s inclusion in the FTSE ADX Dividend Stars Index reinforces our position as one of the region’s leading income stocks and reflects the strength and resilience of our business model.

“Our focus on operational excellence, disciplined capital allocation and long-term value creation enables us to deliver consistent and reliable returns for shareholders.” In FY2025, Borouge will pay a dividend of 16.2 fils per share. Borouge Group International, when launched, is expected to maintain that through to at least 2030.
