Global Multi-Asset Broker FP Markets Secures UAE CMA Category 5 Licence

The licence, held by group entity FP Markets MENA Securities L.L.C. S.O.C., permits
the broker to carry out marketing, promotional, and client introduction activities
in Dubai and across the Emirates. In recent years, the UAE has drawn growing numbers
of brokers, fintechs, and financial services providers looking to operate on more
solid regulatory ground as they build out their regional client base.

John Lewis, FP Markets Chief Marketing Officer, stated: ‘Securing a CMA licence 
is part of FP Markets’ longer-term approach to regulation. Over the past 20 years,
each licence we’ve added has built toward the multi-regulated presence we operate
today, and the UAE is a natural next step in that. For our clients and partners,
this means added security, transparency, and quality of service.’  

The licence also underpins a more direct regulatory relationship within the UAE 
market, on top of FP Markets’ existing multi-jurisdictional oversight. FP Markets
holds [licences](https://www.fpmarkets.com/regulation/) across multiple leading 
jurisdictions including: the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC),
the Financial Services Authority (FSA) in Seychelles, the Financial Sector Conduct
Authority (FSCA) of South Africa, and the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) of Kenya.

FP Markets will continue to expand its regulatory coverage across markets, in conjunction
with ongoing investment in its trading infrastructure, technology, and support functions,
ensuring that the pace of regulatory growth is matched by the award-winning quality
of service the broker offers to clients and partners alike.
