XS.com Gains UAE SCA License, Expanding Global Reach

XS.com, a global multi-asset fintech leader, has achieved a major regulatory milestone with its approval from the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) of the United Arab Emirates. This newly granted Category 5 license enables the firm to offer financial trading services within one of the world‘s most respected and tightly regulated jurisdictions, strengthening its position in the MENA region’s thriving fintech sector.

Strengthening Regional Trust and Compliance

According to Shadi Salloum, Regional Director of XS.com for MENA, the SCA license marks a moment of pride and validation for the companys long-standing commitment to transparency and client protection. By securing a UAE financial broker license, XS.com gains the trust of sophisticated investors and institutional traders who prioritize working with brokers regulated by top-tier authorities.

This milestone places XS.com among a select group of brokers operating under the UAE‘s Category 5 trading license framework, a benchmark for compliance and credibility in the region’s capital markets. The new license affirms the groups ability to meet rigorous operational standards, client fund protection requirements, and continuous supervisory obligations mandated by the SCA.

Expanding a Global Regulatory Portfolio

Founded in Australia in 2010, XS.com has evolved into a global multi-asset broker serving traders, institutions, and partners worldwide. The company operates under multiple regulatory approvals, including ASIC (Australia), CySEC (Cyprus), FSA (Seychelles), LFSA (Malaysia), FSCA (South Africa), FSC (Mauritius), and MOCI (Kuwait).

The inclusion of the UAE within its regulatory network further solidifies XS.com‘s position as a fully regulated forex and derivatives broker.
