Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) will be the first of several state-owned companies to be listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM).

The listing of the utility provider will be carried out in phases, taking into account the size of the assets, according to His Highness Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Deputy Ruler of Dubai, and the UAE's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance.

It comes a day after he announced plans to list 10 government and state-owned companies on the DFM.
