According to Fortune, Binance has secured full regulatory authorization from the ADGM FSRA, becoming the first cryptocurrency exchange to receive a global license under the ADGM framework. This milestone reinforces ADGM‘s strategic push to attract compliant crypto operators and aligns with evolving global licensing trends.
A Binance spokesperson did not respond to inquiries regarding a potential relocation of its headquarters to Abu Dhabi.
Industry observers view the licensing milestone as a signal of ADGM’s commitment to a robust crypto regulatory regime and could influence market access for regional and global participants. For investors, the framework may offer enhanced oversight, clearer governance, and more transparent disclosure requirements.
