“The adoption of a regulatory framework for virtual assets in the UAE, concordant with approved anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism standards.”

The central bank of the UAE further said that this regulatory framework is just “an initial step in providing comprehensive regulation of virtual assets” and to safeguard the investors and financial system from the risks of money laundering and terrorist financing.
