Codebase Technologies Partners with Fuze to Offer Digital Asset Capabilities to Banks in the Middle East
The collaboration aims to support banks and fintechs in the region seeking to expand their service offerings to include digital assets.
The partnership comes amid rising institutional interest in cryptocurrencies across the Middle East.
'We're not trying to ride a trend,'
said Omar Mansur, Managing Director, APAC at Codebase Technologies.
'Our clients are asking how to offer digital asset services in a way that fits into their existing systems and without undue burden on their compliance and operations teams. This partnership gives them a practical and fast way to do that, to capitalise on the significant market potential.'
Fuze will provide the infrastructure to enable Digibanc users to offer crypto services via a streamlined integration process.
This includes access to digital asset tools designed to minimise operational complexity for financial institutions.
'Banks have been circling the digital asset space for a while,'
said Mo Ali, CEO at Fuze.
'What's been missing is a setup that feels familiar, that fits how they already operate. That's what we're offering with Codebase Technologies.'
Codebase Technologies has previously worked with financial institutions across MENA, APAC, and Europe, delivering digital banking solutions through its Digibanc platform.
Fuze, meanwhile, brings expertise in supporting institutions with the technical and regulatory challenges of launching digital asset products.
Together, the companies intend to provide banks and fintechs with a practical route into the digital asset space that aligns with institutional requirements and existing infrastructure.

OWWA e-Card printer to stay at MWO-Dubai even after Serbisyo Caravan
UAE-based OFWs who were unable to claim their e-Cards during the recent Serbisyo Caravan in Dubai will still be able to get their cards, as the Overseas Workers Welfare Administration (OWWA) will leave its card printer at the Migrant Workers Office (MWO). 'Huwag kayong mag-alala para sa OWWA dahil hindi lang ito isang araw lang sa Dubai. Iiwan na namin dito 'yung card printer para tuloy-tuloy lang ang pagpi-print ng OWWA e-Card dito sa Dubai,' OWWA Administrator Patricia Yvonne Caunan. Alongside the surge in National ID applications, the OWWA e-Card was among the most in-demand services during the OFW Serbisyo Caravan held at the Dubai World Trade Center on August 3. Active members of OWWA who wish to request an e-Card may complete their registration using a QR code provided by the agency. The QR code will remain available for those who missed the caravan. She added that eligible individuals can claim their e-Card anytime, even after the event. 'Anytime pwede niyong kunin, at kung hindi niyo makukuha today, kayo po ay cocontact-in ng mga tauhan ng OWWA dito sa Dubai,' she said. Thousands of attendees OWWA made the decision after thousands of Filipinos turned up at the one-day event, overwhelming the initial space at Exhibition Hall 8 of the Dubai World Trade Center and prompting organizers to expand the venue to Sheikh Rashid Hall. Caunan acknowledged the large turnout and emphasized the need for recurring caravans in the UAE. 'Hindi natin in-expect na ganito karami ang may kailangan ng serbisyo ng gobyerno dito sa Dubai. Hindi pwedeng isa o dalawang araw lang ito, kailangan ulit-ulitin ito dahil kailangan dito sa UAE dalhin ang serbisyo ng gobyerno,' Caunan said. The OWWA e-Card serves as proof of membership and can be used to access various government services and programs for overseas Filipinos.

A permit and licence is required to fly a drone legally in Dubai. Sanad Academy is the United Arab Emirate's first RPA (Remotely Piloted Aircraft) training and certification specialists endorsed by the Dubai Civil Aviation authority. It is responsible to train, test and certify drone operators and drones in UAE with DCAA Endorsement. 'We are teaching people how to fly in accordance with the laws of the UAE,' said Ahmad Al Hamadi, a trainer at Sanad. 'We can show how the aircraft work and how they are operated. They are relatively easy to use, but they need responsible pilots. 'Pilots have to be mature. They are given a map of where they can and can't fly in the UAE and we make these points clear in the lectures we give. 'You cannot fly a drone without registration under any circumstances.' Larger drones are harder to fly, and have a different response to location control. There are no brakes in the air, so the larger drones have more power. The Sanad Academy has a designated area to fly off the Al Ain Road near Skydive Dubai to show pilots how to fly responsibly. 'As UAS technology becomes mainstream, it is important to build wider awareness on how to integrate it into commerce and our personal lives,' said Major General Abdulla Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief, Dubai Police. 'Operators must undergo proper training and certification to ensure safety and compliance. 'Dubai's airspace will undoubtedly experience increased traffic as UAS innovations become commonplace, the Forum allows commercial users to learn of best practice applications to implement UAS safely and legally, while benefitting a whole range of industries.'
