Understanding What’s Required — And Making It Work
Every DNFBP sector faces distinct regulatory expectations. Whether you’re handling property sales, advising clients, executing real estate deals, or trading in precious metals, the rules aren’t one-size-fits-all. We help you identify what applies to your business — then design a compliance approach that’s proportionate, practical, and defensible.
Tailored Solutions for Your Business Model
Your operations, client base, and risk exposure are different — and so is our approach. From onboarding procedures to transaction monitoring, we align our support with your actual workflows. That means less disruption, faster adoption, and a setup you can confidently stand behind during inspections.
Are You Classified as a
DNFBP?
Gold & Precious Metal Trading (DMPS)
Our compliance solutions help mitigate these risks through the implementation of AML policies, responsible sourcing protocols, and thorough due diligence on suppliers and customers.
Real Estate Agents
Real estate transactions can be exploited for illicit activities. We assist real estate agents in conducting comprehensive due diligence on clients and implementing onboarding protocols to ensure compliance with regulations.
Law Firms & Notaries
Legal professionals are susceptible to being used for money laundering purposes. Our solutions include client due diligence and stringent onboarding protocols to protect your practice from geographical and transactional risks.

Why Compliance Can’t Be Delayed?
Regulatory expectations for DNFBPs in the UAE have grown significantly. Authorities are now requesting documentation, conducting inspections, and reviewing AML/CFT readiness across a wide range of businesses.
If your operations involve high-value transactions, client advisory services, or company structuring, you’re expected to have systems in place — including risk assessments, KYC protocols, and suspicious activity reporting workflows.
Proactive compliance is no longer optional — it’s essential to protect your license, reputation, and operations. We help DNFBPs implement clear, effective measures that meet today’s regulatory standards.
