The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) announced today the launch of a new free IOS and Android mobile application and its newly revamped website.  The new application and revamped website will provide stakeholders with a more innovative and direct way to access information about the DFSA’s activities.

The development of the mobile application aims to facilitate easy access to information about Authorised Firms and Authorised Individuals through the Public Register. It features push notifications that will enable users to be alerted about DFSA alerts, media releases and other DFSA regulatory updates and warnings of scams as and when they happen.
 
The new website is highly visual, with a focus on modern design and a user friendly interface. It has been designed for an optimal viewing and interactive experience, easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling, across a wide range of devices from desktop computer monitors to mobile phones.

Mr Waleed Al Awadhi, DFSA Director, Operations and Corporate Affairs said: “Today we are proud to announce the introduction of our new mobile application and launch of our newly revamped website. This move comes in line with the strategy of His Highness Shaikh Mohammad bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President, Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to transform Dubai into a “Smart City". The new application and website will allow us to communicate more directly and transparently with our stakeholders on all levels, and will facilitate better stakeholder interaction. As we continue to move forward in this Information Technology age, we at the DFSA are committed to enhance stakeholder engagement. Today smart technology has become part of every government entity in Dubai, and the DFSA intends to stay ahead in ways to contribute to the success story of Dubai.”
