HashKey Group, a leading end-to-end digital asset financial services group in Asia, announced that HashKey MENA FZE, a member of the HashKey Group, has received an In-Principle Approval (IPA) from the Dubai Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) for its Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license application. This regulatory approval reinforces HashKey Group’s position as a trusted leader in the virtual asset industry, enabling HashKey to deliver secure and transparent services globally.
Upon final approval, the VASP license will authorise HashKey MENA FZE to offer Virtual Asset Exchange Services and Virtual Asset Broker-Dealer Services in and from the Emirate of Dubai to retail investors, qualified investors, and institutional investors. This milestone also marks significant progress for HashKey OTC, the Group’s over-the-counter trading arm, as it expands its regulated offerings in the Middle East. In doing so, HashKey OTC underscores its commitment to a compliance-first approach, offering investors a secure and efficient environment for digital asset trading.
