Finalto gains UAE SCA Category 5 licence, strengthening its Middle East expansion.
Finalto, an award-winning multi-asset liquidity provider and fintech specialist, is pleased to announce that it has been granted a Category 5 licence by the UAE Securities & Commodities Authority (SCA). This significant milestone further strengthens Finalto’s global regulatory framework and reinforces the company’s commitment to serving professional and institutional clients in one of the world’s most dynamic and fast-growing regions.
Finalto combines global reach with deep local expertise, delivering flexible solutions that seamlessly connect institutions to global markets. The group has built its reputation on providing outstanding trading and risk-management capabilities, supported by teams of specialists across major international financial centres.
As Finalto continues to evolve as a globally recognised and highly regulated financial services leader, the addition of the UAE SCA Category 5 licence marks a key step in its strategic expansion. The licence enables the firm to enhance its presence across the Middle East while offering clients in the region a trusted and transparent partner.
Conor Canny, CEO Finalto MENA, commented: “Securing the Category 5 licence is a major milestone for Finalto in the Middle East. It allows us to deepen our commitment to the UAE by facilitating clients’ access to our global liquidity and technology solutions. The UAE is an innovation-driven financial hub, and we are excited to support clients here with the highest standards of service, transparency and governance.”
Paul Groves, UK CEO at Finalto, added: “This licence reflects our continued investment in global growth and regulatory strength. The UAE is a key strategic market for us, and this development allows our teams to deliver even greater value to clients across the region. We look forward to expanding our partnerships and offering access to tailored, multi-asset solutions that meet the evolving needs of institutions operating in this dynamic landscape.”
At Finalto, clients are viewed as long-term partners. The group rejects a one-size-fits-all approach, instead working collaboratively to develop customised, sustainable relationships that support strategic growth. Finalto’s global pricing distribution is designed to deliver consistent execution and reliable liquidity, providing partners with confidence and stability in a rapidly changing market environment.

Executive Interview | Kieran Duff | Head of UK Growth & Business Development, Darwinex | FMLS:25
Here is our conversation with Kieran Duff, who brings a rare dual view of the market as both a broker and a trader at Darwinex.
We begin with his take on the Summit and then turn to broker growth. Kieran shares one quick, practical tip brokers can use right now to improve performance. We also cover the rising spotlight on prop trading and whether it is good or bad for the trading industry.
Kieran explains where Darwinex sits on the CFDs-broker-meets-funding spectrum, and how the model differs from the typical setups seen across the market.
We finish with a look at how he uses AI in his daily workflow — both inside the brokerage and in his own trading.
