In this episode of The Riffle, we unpack the ADGM FSRA’s Thematic Review on Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter Financing of Terrorism (CFT), and Targeted Financial Sanctions (TFS) frameworks for Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs).
The review reveals a clear message — awareness alone isn’t enough. Firms must turn written policies into measurable, consistent action.
Tune in as we break down:
🔹 The purpose and scope of the FSRA’s review
🔹 The biggest weaknesses found across licensed VASPs
🔹 FSRA’s expectations for stronger, risk-based AML/CFT frameworks
🔹 The steps firms must take to enhance compliance and governance
As ADGM continues to shape itself as a global hub for virtual assets, this review reinforces its commitment to regulatory integrity, transparency, and responsible innovation.
