DEWS Plan
DEWS – working towards a brighter financial tomorrow
In 2020, the DIFC launched the DEWS Plan to transform the way end-of-service-benefits (EOSB) were managed and to drive a culture of long-term savings that is aligned to global best practices. DEWS has also been chosen by the Government of Dubai as the mechanism to deliver its “Savings Scheme for employees in the Government of Dubai” initiative. DEWS also offers a voluntary savings option, allowing employees to secure their financial future with ease by making additional voluntary contributions.
Since February 2020, DEWS has succeeded in delivering strong investment performance, a relationship of trust and a promise of building a brighter future.
