In this episode of The Riffle, we break down the UAE’s evolving regulatory framework for Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CFT) alongside the newly established rules governing Commercial Gaming.

We unpack the core compliance obligations placed on Financial Institutions, DNFBPs, and Virtual Asset Service Providers — from risk-based assessments and customer due diligence thresholds to strict suspicious transaction reporting requirements and enhanced supervisory powers. The episode also explores how the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority regulates advertising, technical integrity, and system-wide gaming operations through globally recognised GLI standards.

If you want a clear, practical summary of how these frameworks impact regulated firms, compliance teams, and operators entering the UAE’s commercial gaming space, this episode delivers the essentials.
