Dubai Multi
Commodities Centre (DMCC) has inked a partnership agreement with Swedish fintech
company Vermiculus as the business hub looks to expand its technology
capabilities and deepen connections with Nordic markets.

The
memorandum of understanding between DMCC and the Stockholm-based firm focuses
on financial technology solutions for exchanges, clearing houses and securities
depositories. Both organizations will explore joint projects and share
technical expertise under the arrangement.

DMCC Partners with Swedish
Fintech Vermiculus in Technology Push

DMCC
operates the Dubai Gold and Commodities Exchange and Dubai Commodities Clearing
Corporation, making technology partnerships particularly relevant to its core
business functions. The agreement comes as the organization serves nearly
26,000 member companies across its various business ecosystems.

Vermiculus,
which started operations in 2019, specializes in cloud-based systems for
financial market infrastructure. The company develops platforms that
incorporate artificial intelligence capabilities for exchanges and clearing
organizations worldwide.

“Innovation
is reshaping the future of trade and finance,” DMCC Executive
Chairman and CEO Ahmed Bin Sulayem said in a statement. “By signing
this MoU with Vermiculus, we’re laying the groundwork for collaboration that
drives knowledge exchange, technology adoption and new opportunities for nearly
26,000 companies in our community.”

UAE and Sweden Strengthen
Ties

The Swedish
company brings experience from working with major global exchanges and clearing
houses over the past quarter-century. Its founder and Chairman, Nils-Robert Persson, highlighted the firm’s focus on “mission-critical needs of exchanges and financial institutions worldwide.”

“Partnering
with DMCC, one of the world’s most dynamic business districts, provides a
unique opportunity to explore areas of mutual interest and growth,” Persson
noted.

The most
relevant recent cooperation occurred in May 2025, when a UAE delegation led by
Assistant Foreign Minister for Advanced Science and Technology Omran Sharaf
concluded a two-day visit to Stockholm.

The
agreement doesn’t specify financial terms or timeline details for potential
joint projects. Both organizations indicated they would focus initially on
identifying areas where their expertise could complement each other.

The most well-known Swedish fintech is Klarna, the leader in the Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) market. The company has been preparing for its Wall Street debut for several months, and many indications suggest that it could take place as early as September.
