Swift Audit & Advisory powers growth for crypto businesses in the UAE's digital economy
As the UAE emerges as a global hub for digital assets, Swift Audit & Advisory is playing a pivotal role in supporting crypto and blockchain-based businesses with the financial clarity, regulatory readiness, and operational strength they need to thrive. From early-stage ventures to established exchanges, Swift delivers tailored advisory services grounded in deep sector knowledge and local expertise.
Whether it's an early-stage startup or a fully operational exchange, Swift Audit & Advisory provides strategic support across areas such as licensing, compliance, financial governance, and cybersecurity. Its services cover advisory for VARA and ADGM licensing, AML/KYC policy reviews, internal audit, tax structuring, and cybersecurity risk assessments.
'Swift fully aligns with the UAE's ambition to become a leading global hub for digital assets under its 2030 economic vision. By supporting crypto businesses with audit, compliance, and advisory services, we contribute to building trust and transparency in the sector - two essential elements for market stability and investor confidence. Our work helps position the UAE as a jurisdiction where digital assets can thrive under clear regulatory and financial governance,' said Arwa Naccho, Managing Partner at Swift Audit & Advisory.
Swift Audit & Advisory currently serve eight businesses operating across the digital asset ecosystem. These include blockchain education platforms, crypto content and trading services, and businesses in industries that integrate blockchain or crypto wallets for payment processing. This wide-ranging exposure allows the company to deliver nuanced, fit-for-purpose advisory services across both crypto-native and crypto-adjacent operations.
'Through our specialized compliance advisory and financial structuring support, we've helped crypto-related businesses reduce regulatory exposure and streamline operations. By enhancing their financial reporting practices and aligning their compliance frameworks with UAE regulations, our clients have minimized the risk of penalties and achieved greater clarity over cost drivers. This in turn allows them to allocate resources more efficiently, fueling growth and innovation,' added Arwa Naccho, Managing Partner at Swift Audit & Advisory.
As the UAE's digital asset regulatory environment continues to mature, Swift plans to expand its services with targeted Crypto Risk Assessments and Regulatory Readiness Programs designed to help clients anticipate and meet compliance expectations proactively. The company is also building partnerships with legal and cybersecurity specialists to provide a comprehensive suite of governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) services for crypto businesses.
Swift Audit & Advisory strength lies in combining deep expertise with localized UAE market knowledge. While many firms rely on template-based approaches, Swift delivers practical, context-specific advisory tailored to the unique compliance and operational challenges in the digital asset space.
