About Us

Nukoud is a news and information platform covering Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).

Founded in 2025, Nukoud was established in response to the rapid expansion of ETFs in regional markets and the growing need for clear, reliable reporting on these products. As ETFs become a more prominent part of the GCC investment landscape, investors and market participants increasingly require objective coverage that explains how these instruments work, how they trade, and how the market around them is developing.

Nukoud focuses on ETF-related news, market developments, and educational coverage relevant to the GCC, including fund launches, listings, liquidity and trading dynamics, regulatory changes, and broader trends shaping the regional ETF ecosystem.

Our Editorial Approach

Our reporting emphasizes three core principles:

  • Clarity — Making complex market developments understandable without sacrificing accuracy.
  • Context — Providing region-specific insight relevant to GCC investors and market participants.
  • Independence — Maintaining editorial autonomy and a fact-driven approach to all coverage.

The publication aims to serve investors, advisors, and industry professionals seeking informed, region-specific insight into ETFs. Nukoud does not provide investment advice.

As ETFs continue to grow in scale and relevance across GCC markets, Nukoud is committed to covering their evolution with consistency, discipline, and a focus on investor understanding.
