Som en del av den första fasen av sitt nyligen initierade initiativ för transformation av finansiell infrastruktur (FIT) har Förenade Arabemiratens centralbank (CBUAE) planer på att införa en digital centralbanksvaluta (CBDC) som kommer att vara giltig för både internationell och lokal transaktioner.

The Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates (CBUAE) has recently made a statement in which it announced the FIT program and underlined its goal to assist the country's financial services industry. The UAE's Central Bank underlined the fact that the scheme will boost digital transactions and help the UAE to become more competitive as a financial and digital payment centre.

The issue of a CBDC is required in order to go on to the next level of the FIT program. The issuing of a CBDC would, in the words of the central bank, "address the difficulties and inefficiencies of cross-border payments and assist spur innovation for domestic payments, respectively." The Governor of the CBUAE, Khaled Mohamed Balama, said that the FIT program would "help a flourishing UAE financial ecosystem and its future expansion."

During the first stage of the program, in addition to a CBDC, the government intends to launch a unified card payment platform to "facilitate the growth of e-commerce" as well as an instant payments platform to "support financial inclusion and enable a cashless society." Both of these platforms are intended to be implemented in order to "facilitate the growth of e-commerce."

Inkluderade i de nio initiativ som utgör FIT-programmet är de som kommer att genomföras under den första etappen. Efter det första steget kommer andra initiativ att genomföras, såsom en e-Know Your Customer-portal och ett innovationscenter.

The long-awaited "Full Market Product Regulations" were finally published on February 7 by the Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA) of Dubai. These regulations offer detailed instructions on virtual asset operations for projects that are operating inside the emirate. The restrictions include a prohibition on the issuance of "anonymity-enhanced cryptocurrencies," which are also sometimes referred to as "privacy coins," as well as actions that are similar.
