In this episode of The Riffle, we break down the DFSA’s latest communication on Licensed Functions and the ongoing fitness & propriety obligations for all Authorised Firms in the DIFC.

We unpack the regulator’s reminder that—despite proposals in Consultation Paper 165—firms must not act on any suggested changes until official amendments are published. The episode explores the DFSA’s reinforced expectations around vetting, monitoring, governance, outsourcing oversight, and the capacity of individuals performing multiple Licensed Functions.

If you want a clear, practical summary of what this means for SEOs, compliance teams, and Authorised Firms operating under the current Rulebook, this episode delivers the essentials.
