The United Arab Emirates hosts two prominent international financial centres: Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). These hubs offer an exceptionally supportive ecosystem for finance, investment, and asset management firms.
Key advantages include independent regulatory frameworks, favorable tax incentives for compliant entities, robust infrastructure, and legal systems based on English common law.
Support for international financial institutions
Both centres foster a favourable ecosystem for global banks, asset-management firms, family offices, and fintech companies. With gateway access to the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, ADGM and DIFC are a strategic choice for organisations pursuing worldwide expansion.
Regulatory transparency and stability
ADGM and DIFC deliver a high level of legal predictability and clarity, making them trusted jurisdictions for financial institutions. Their independent regulatory frameworks create a secure, resilient business environment.
Rooted in English common law, ADGM attracts asset-management firms, insurers, and fintech innovators. Its regulator—the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA)—applies rigorous supervisory standards, fostering a stable and well-governed business environment.
One of the region’s premier financial hubs, DIFC provides direct access to global markets and a comprehensive platform for banking, investment, and fintech enterprises. Supervision by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) ensures strong legal protection and transparent operating conditions.
