Ripple has received in-principle approval of a financial services license from the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) to expand its services from the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). This milestone marks a significant step in Ripple's global expansion.

Ripple's Recent Win in Crypto Regulation

Ripple's chief legal counsel, Stuart Alderoty, reacted to the recent win in crypto regulation. Ripple has received in-principle approval of a financial services license from the DFSA, significantly expanding its capabilities to launch payment services in the United Arab Emirates.

Planned Services and Ripple's Global Expansion

This milestone significantly expands Ripple's global footprint as a regulated firm. The license will allow the company to launch cross-border payment services, such as Ripple Payments Direct (RPD), in the UAE. Alderoty highlighted that Ripple's license portfolio now exceeds 55 and continues to grow.

New Ripple Partnerships in the Middle East

Ripple recently announced a partnership with the DIFC Innovation Hub as part of its global one billion XRP fund program. The partnership aims to strengthen blockchain and digital asset innovation in the UAE by connecting emerging developers to DIFC's extensive innovation network. Additionally, Ripple renewed its strategic collaboration with NYU Abu Dhabi through the University Blockchain Research Initiative (UBRI), granting over $1 million to support research projects.

The in-principle approval from DFSA and new partnerships open up new opportunities for Ripple to further its development and strengthen its presence in the Middle East.
