As we approach the end of the year, we will seek to strengthen collaboration with other local investors, providing tools that improve their ability to protect and grow their portfolios." In April of this year, the DGCX also announced that it plans to launch a Mini-Gold Futures product in partnership with RAKBANK, offering investors the chance to trade gold in smaller denominations.
