Exposing the Potential for Binary Options in the Middle East and North Africa

Today we share more interesting insights about binary options trading from the latest issue of the Finance Magnates Intelligence Report, critical for doing business in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. Data regarding the deposit and withdrawal patterns of traders shows some great divergence by country.

With regard to first time deposits we can see that the traders in the region broadly cluster around the same levels. New clients from Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon and Qatar all deposit an average of $250 to open an account. In the Gulf, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, the figure is around $290. Only Turkey stands out of the crowd with an average of over $384 per first time binary options deposit.

Looking at withdrawal figures the picture we get is very different. At above $1688, binary options traders in the United Arab Emirates withdraw over eight times more money than those in Kuwait with an average of less than $205. Saudi Arabia comes in second in the withdrawal ranking with an average over $1416, and Qatar is in third place with less than half of that, $654. The rest of the region follows with figures between $250 to $550. A possible explanation for the difference is that traders in the rich Gulf area can deposit more after they open an account and eventually cash out with a bigger payout.
