STARTRADER has obtained its Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) license in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), adding to its existing regulatory approvals across various global markets.
STARTRADER Gains SCA License
This new license increases the company’s total number of financial services licenses to six, including those from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), the Financial Services Authority (FSA) of Seychelles, the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) of South Africa, and the Financial Services Commission (FSC) of Mauritius.
Peter Karsten, CEO of STARTRADER, stated: “Securing six licenses, including the SCA, is a major milestone for STARTRADER. This allows us to better serve our clients in carefully selected markets, with the UAE acting as a central hub for growth.”
Targeting UAE Growth
The SCA license provides STARTRADER with the ability to serve clients in the UAE as the region continues to grow as a financial hub. The company aims to expand its reach in the UAE market, aligning with the broader trends in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
