DFSA Policy on Fiat Crypto Tokens: Assessment Criteria and Approved List

In this episode of The Riffle, we break down the DFSA’s policy framework for assessing the suitability of Fiat Crypto Tokens and what it means for firms operating in or from the DIFC. We unpack the DFSA’s expectations around price stability, reserve backing, and governance, including strict requirements on asset quality, liquidity, segregation, and daily valuation of reserves. The episode also explores transparency and accountability obligations, AML regulatory equivalence standards, and the limits of relying on third-party verifications. We also examine the practical implications for Authorised Firms, highlighting that DFSA approval of a Fiat Crypto Token does not remove a firm’s responsibility to maintain robust systems, controls, and ongoing risk assessments when using these tokens. If you want a clear, practical summary of how this policy impacts Authorised Firms, compliance teams, SEOs, MLROs, and senior management assessing or using fiat-referenced crypto tokens within the DIFC, this episode delivers the essentials.
