Digital Economy on the Rise: Trillions Traded Daily, Podcasts Enter Financial Spotlight
As the global economy undergoes a rapid digital transformation, the daily average trading volume in the foreign exchange markets has surpassed $7.5 trillion, according to the Bank for International Settlements (BIS). This surge reflects a growing appetite for liquidity and a proliferation of opportunities in global financial markets.
In the Middle East, digital trading is experiencing a remarkable annual growth rate of 23% since 2020—fueled by increased financial awareness and the rise of digital education tools. Amid this evolution, podcasts have emerged as powerful platforms for delivering financial knowledge in an accessible, human-centric way.
EVEST TALK: A Podcast That Speaks the Language of Real Investor Life is wrapping up Season 4 with a fresh lineup of segments designed to connect lifestyle with financial performance. The new season explores how daily habits and mental clarity impact investor behavior through four themed segments:
Morning Rituals– Sharing he morning rituals for a successful person as a foundation for any good investment.
Mindset Matters – Examining how positive thinking shapes financial decisionmaking.
Daily Affirmations – Integrating affirmations into daily mental routines.
Unwind Weekend – Encouraging mindful relaxation as a tool for long-term resilience.
From Podcast to Drama: A New Era of Content Marketing Ismail Haj, Chief Marketing Officer at EVEST, describes the company’s approach to content not just as marketing, but as storytelling with purpose:
Ismail Haj, Chief Marketing Officer at EVEST
“At EVEST, we don’t just offer Trading services—we tell stories that inspire and build long-term relationships. Edutainment is a gateway to meaningful engagement. Last year, we launched a 10-episode comedy-drama called 1-0, which follows a young man's journey into the world of investing. It struck a chord with audiences and surpassed 100 million views across platforms.”
Haj adds, “The series delivered a human message through edutainment, allowing us to reach a new demographic that doesn’t typically engage with conventional financial content. EVEST TALK continues that philosophy. It’s a flexible, engaging platform where financial concepts are unpacked in a real, relatable way. This kind of content builds brand trust, fosters loyalty, and positions EVEST as a forward-thinking company that understands both the logic and emotion behind investing”.
EVEST’s innovative content strategy has translated into strong audience loyalty, broader community engagement, and a growing reputation as a brand that’s not only trustworthy but also refreshingly modern and connected to the real lives of investors.
