Blueberry Strengthens MENA Presence with CMA Category 5 License and Dubai Office Launch

Blueberry Strengthens MENA Presence with CMA Category 5 License and Dubai Office Launch

Dubai, United Arab Emirates - Global online trading firm Blueberry Financial Consultation has taken significant strides in its Middle East expansion plans with the acquisition of a Category 5 License from the UAE Capital Markets Authority (CMA) and the opening of a new office in Dubai. This move solidifies the company's commitment to operating within regulated frameworks while expanding its presence in one of the region's key financial centers.

The Category 5 license allows Blueberry Financial Consultation to engage in regulated promotional activities within the UAE, demonstrating its dedication to transparency, compliance, and responsible engagement in the financial services sector. The newly launched Dubai office will serve as the company's regional hub, supporting operations, partnerships, and client engagement across vital markets such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt.

Giscard Abi El Hessen, Head of Category at Blueberry Financial Consultation, expressed optimism about the milestone, stating that securing the license and establishing a presence in Dubai represents a crucial step towards their long-term vision for the MENA region. The company remains focused on building a transparent and compliant operation that aligns with local regulations while catering to the evolving needs of traders.

By operating under separate legal entities, Blueberry Financial Consultation LLC and Blueberry Markets (Mauritius) Ltd maintain distinct regulatory frameworks, with the former licensed and regulated by the UAE Capital Market Authority (CMA) and the latter regulated by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) of Mauritius. Each entity is responsible for its respective activities, ensuring a clear separation between consultation and introduction services and the products, services, and international brand activities offered by the Mauritius entity.

Traders must understand the risks involved in leveraged products like foreign exchange and derivatives and seek independent advice when needed.
