QCP Group Secures Full ADGM License, Expands Digital Asset Trading Services in Abu Dhabi
QCP Group (QCP), a global leader in digital asset trading, has announced it has received its full Financial Services Permission (FSP) from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) in Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the UAE capital’s international financial centre.
This milestone marks a major step in QCP’s global expansion, strengthening its presence in the Middle East and reinforcing its reputation as a trusted partner for institutional digital asset clients. The achievement follows QCP’s earlier success in securing a Major Payment Institution (MPI) License from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), giving the firm a strong regulatory foundation across two leading global financial hubs.
“Receiving our full license in ADGM is a pivotal moment for QCP and a cornerstone of our global strategy. The Middle East is a vital region for the future of digital assets, and ADGM provides a world-class legal and regulatory framework that allows us to serve our clients with confidence,” said Darius Sit, Founder of QCP. “This achievement complements our licensed headquarters in Singapore and strengthens our ability to bridge the gap between Asia and the Middle East. Our commitment is to bring institutional clients security, transparency, and a seamless 24/7 platform, all built upon a foundation of regulatory integrity.”
Expanding Digital Asset Services in Abu Dhabi
With the new FSP, QCP can now offer a comprehensive suite of regulated digital asset services directly from Abu Dhabi. These include:
- Spot and derivatives trading
- Market making
- Bespoke structured solutions tailored to institutional and professional investors
Welcoming the development, Arvind Ramamurthy, Chief Market Development Officer at ADGM, commented:
“We are delighted to welcome QCP Group to ADGM’s vibrant international financial centre. QCP’s focus on regulatory compliance and innovative digital asset solutions aligns seamlessly with ADGM’s vision of fostering a trusted and dynamic financial ecosystem. As we continue to attract top-tier financial institutions, ADGM remains committed to enhancing global connectivity and driving the delivery of world-class financial solutions that support sustainable economic growth across the region.”
Strengthening Global Coverage
By holding regulated status in both ADGM and Singapore, QCP provides institutional clients with a unique advantage: access to a partner that meets the rigorous compliance standards of two globally respected regulatory bodies. This dual presence enables QCP to deliver uninterrupted global coverage and a comprehensive range of regulated digital asset products, reinforcing its position as a leader in institutional crypto markets.
