ADGM FSRA implements amendments to its digital asset regulatory framework
The Financial Services Authority (FSRA) of Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) today announced the implementation of amendments to its regulatory framework for digital assets, with immediate effect. The implementation of these amendments follows extensive industry engagement and feedback received on Consultation Paper No. 11 of 2024. The focus of the implemented amendments is on revisions to the process whereby Virtual Assets (VAs) are accepted for use as Accepted Virtual Assets (AVAs) in ADGM, alongside appropriate capital requirements and fees for Authorised Persons conducting Regulated Activities in relation to VAs (VA Firms). The amendments also introduce a specific product intervention power in relation to VAs as well as enshrining rules that confirm the existing approach to the prohibition of using privacy tokens and algorithmic stablecoins within ADGM. Finally, the amendments expand the scope of investments in which Venture Capital Funds may invest. The FSRA has updated the Guidance – Regulation of Virtual Asset Activities in ADGM to reflect the implemented measures and to provide further guidance to VA Firms in relation to applying the AVA assessment criteria. Emmanuel Givanakis, Chief Executive Officer of ADGM's FSRA said: 'The implementation of these changes marks a significant milestone in the evolution of the FSRA's framework for digital asset regulation. Through extensive consultation with industry stakeholders, we have further enhanced our framework to provide the regulatory certainty that industry participants need, while addressing the evolving risks of the digital asset ecosystem. We believe this further positions ADGM as a premier jurisdiction for digital asset-related activities and shows our commitment to fostering responsible innovation in financial services." The FSRA acknowledges the constructive and well received feedback received in response to the Consultation Paper, including in relation to the discussion points raised, and for the amended legislation see here.

Hotspots, key trends underpin Dubai real estate boom
Three standout trends, including a big uptick in branded residences, a shift to the suburbs, and luxury villa demand surge are driving Dubai's property market buoyancy as the emirate's economy sustains a boom with foreign direct investment climbing 15 per cent year-on-year in early 2025. Branded residences, currently commanding a 30 to 40 per cent premium over non-branded luxury units, are booming. New launches like Chelsea Residences by Damac, Trump International Hotel & Tower, and Bugatti Residences by Binghatti fuelled a 23 per cent inventory rise in 2024. Yet demand — led by over 60 per cent overseas investors and second-home buyers — outstrips supply in prime areas, a report by Oia Properties said. Foreign buyers, making up over 45 per cent of real estate transactions this year, and a 30 per cent rise in new foreign-owned real estate firms from 2024 to 2025, signal increasing global appetite for Dubai's success story. Second, a shift to the suburbs reflects buyers seeking value as urban prices peaked in 2024. Suburban areas like Dubailand and Dubai South saw a 35 per cent spike in transaction volume in early 2025, with price appreciation of 10 to 15 per cent and rental yields of 6 to 7 per cent, outpacing the 4 to 5 per cent in urban centers, according to Oia Properties' latest outlook report. Third, luxury villa demand, sparked during Covid, continues strong, with prices up 20 to 25 per cent from 2022 to early 2025. Villas now comprise 28 per cent of residential sales, up from 18 per cent in 2022, though a 12 to 15 per cent supply increase over the next year may temper prices by five to 10 per cent into 2026. The report unveils the hottest spots and key trends shaping Dubai's property landscape for the second half of 2025, promising golden opportunities for savvy investors. It pinpoints key investment hotspots for H2 2025. Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC) offers apartments at an average Dh880,000, targeting young professionals and small families. Despite an 8.3 per cent price dip year-on-year, strong rental yields and transaction volumes signal resilience and recovery potential, earning a 6/10 growth projection. Business Bay, with apartments averaging Dh1.9 million, appeals to urban professionals near Downtown Dubai, posting a 5.9 per cent price rise and a 7/10 growth score. Dubai South, at Dh954 per square foot for apartments, draws investors and professionals tied to Expo City and Al Maktoum Airport, boasting a top 10/10 growth outlook amid major infrastructure projects. Dubai Marina, a waterfront gem, sees apartments at Dh2.3 million with a 7.8 per cent price increase, earning an 8/10 projection for affluent residents and investors. Additional hotspots include Dubai Hills Estate, with villas at Dh10 million, targets affluent families, projecting 9.1 per cent annual appreciation and a 9/10 growth score, buoyed by premium facilities and golf course views. Arabian Ranches, offering villas at Dh1.9 million, caters to families, with prices up 13 per cent in Q3 2024 and a 9/10 outlook. Palm Jumeirah, an ultra-luxury haven, lists villas at Dh25 million, with a 7.7 per cent appreciation rate and an 8/10 projection, driven by limited supply and global appeal. Downtown Dubai, with apartments at Dh2.5 million, sees a steady 2.9 per cent rise, earning a 6/10 score for high-income buyers near iconic landmarks. The outlook for Dubai's real estate sector in H2 2025 is upbeat, experts say. The Dubai Land Department reports 2024 transaction values hit Dh200 billion, a 20 per cent year-on-year leap, and 2025 is on track to sustain this momentum. Off-plan sales, up 25 per cent in early 2025, reflect developer confidence, while rental growth of 5 to 7 per cent in key areas signals strong returns. Population growth, projected at 3.0 per cent annually by the Dubai Statistics Center, and infrastructure like Al Maktoum Airport's expansion, set to handle 260 million passengers yearly, bolster demand. Property market pundits highlight GDP growth tracking at 5 to 6 per cent for 2025, fuelling investor confidence alongside Dubai's successful pivot to non-oil sectors, which now account for over 70 per cent of GDP. Tourism, a powerhouse, welcomed 19 million visitors in 2024, a 12 per cent year-on-year surge, boosting the economy. This buoyancy propelled Dubai's main stock index to a 17-year high in May 2025, soaring over 25 per cent since early 2024. 'With a dynamic blend of economic strength, bold diversification, and surging demand for luxury and suburban living, Dubai shines as a trusted safe haven amid global geopolitical uncertainty,' market experts said.
