The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) will host a webinar on 12 February 2026 at 10:00am (GST) to discuss the updated Crypto Token Regulatory Framework and to outline how DIFC supports the development of a safe, transparent, and forward-looking digital assets market.

The updated framework, which came into force on 12 January 2026, strengthens the DFSA’s approach to crypto regulation, provides greater clarity for market participants, and aligns its regime with evolving international standards and market practice.

The session will be particularly relevant to Authorised Firms to understand how the updated rules mean for them, and to potential new entrants seeking to conduct financial services activities involving Crypto Tokens in DIFC. It is also open to consultants, advisers, law firms, and other industry participants looking to stay informed about the evolving regulatory landscape.

The session will cover:

• Why the DFSA updated its Crypto Token regime and how it has evolved since its introduction in 2022
• The key changes under the updated framework, including the shift to firm-led Crypto Token suitability assessments
• What the updates mean for existing Authorised Firms and potential new entrants
• How DIFC’s digital assets ecosystem and regulatory framework work together to support responsible innovation and sustainable growth
