Governance and Operating Principles | DMCC Compliance Standards

Operating Discipline

Mandate-driven governance: All alignments begin with formal internal approval and proceed under strict segregation.

• Mandate Primacy: Frameworks defined by proprietary structures only.

• Regulatory Alignment: Full compliance with DMCC/UAE standards, UAE AML Law (Federal Law No. 20/2018), and international sanctions (FATF/OECD).

• Transparency Proportional: Disclosure limited to qualified counterparties under NDA.

Risk & Compliance Standards

  Zero-tolerance for unmitigated risks:

  

• KYC/KYB and AML Verification: Essential for all engagements.

  • ESG Integration: Prioritizing traceable origins with environmental safeguards (e.g., no tailings dams in mining).

  

  • Structures: Bancable (LCs/SWIFT) and hybrid payments (e.g., 70% escrow UAE + 30% direct Brazil, IRRF 15-25% pre-declared).

  • Monitoring: Passive oversight of compliance, without execution.

 

 • Disclaimer

Governance only – no regulated activities. Subject to independent legal review.
