STARTRADER, the global CFD brokerage, held a ceremony at the Hilton Hotel, Al-Habtoor on September 12, 2025, to mark its partnership as the official sponsor of the UAE National Cricket Team’s jerseys at the upcoming DP World Asia Cup 2025.
A Ceremony Rooted in Shared Values
The event was led by Peter Karsten, CEO of STARTRADER, who delivered a keynote speech highlighting the vision behind the collaboration. Karsten spoke about the idea of “home”—a place where people feel supported and connected—and drew parallels between the UAE, cricket, and STARTRADER’s own ethos.
He noted that the UAE has become a crossroads where diverse cultures and communities converge to pursue big ambitions, while cricket stands as a borderless sport uniting fans globally. Similarly, STARTRADER aims to transcend borders by creating an inclusive environment where clients can access and participate in global markets with trust and resilience.
Symbolism of the Partnership
The partnership aligns cricket’s strategic teamwork and resilience with STARTRADER’s own brand values, encapsulated in its S.T.A.R. identity:
-
Strength and Solidarity
-
Trust and Tenacity
-
Ambition and Agility
-
Reliability and Resilience
By standing alongside the UAE team at one of the region’s most high-profile sporting events, STARTRADER reinforces its vision of empowering communities, whether on the pitch or in the markets.
Looking Ahead
As the UAE National Cricket Team competes in the DP World Asia Cup 2025, STARTRADER is positioning this partnership not only as a sports sponsorship but as a step toward building meaningful connections with clients and communities worldwide.
The broker emphasized its long-term commitment to growth in the region, supported by its SCA license in the UAE and regulated presence across six jurisdictions globally.
