September 2025 – B2PRIME, a global leader in institutional liquidity and technology solutions, has achieved a major milestone in its regional growth strategy with the official authorisation of its subsidiary, B2B Prime Services MENA Limited, by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA). This new regulatory licence, effective August 15, 2025, enables B2PRIME to operate as both an agent and principal for investment activities from within the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
This development firmly positions B2PRIME as a compliant, trusted partner for professional counterparties across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and wider MENA region.
Key Highlights of B2PRIME’s DFSA Licence
- Authorised by the DFSA to deal in investments as both agent and principal
- Permitted to hold and control client assets, ensuring robust client-asset protections
- Based in the DIFC, a globally respected common-law financial jurisdiction ranked 12th worldwide
- Operating under a regulatory regime aligned with IOSCO, BCBS, and IAIS global standards
- Focused on serving banks, hedge funds, asset managers, and other professional counterparties
DIFC: A Strategic Launchpad for Institutional Growth
B2PRIME’s choice of the DIFC as its regional base underscores a commitment to institutional-grade governance, legal transparency, and regulatory credibility.
“Institutions want certainty and scale, and DFSA authorisation delivers exactly that — a recognised rulebook, accountable governance, and tested controls,” said Eugenia Mykuliak, Founder & Executive Director of B2PRIME Group.
“The DIFC is now our launchpad to lead the way across MENA.”
The DIFC’s English-language courts and contract-based enforcement mechanisms offer the legal predictability global institutions demand. This, paired with DFSA’s globally aligned regulatory oversight, enables B2PRIME to deliver unparalleled institutional value.
Institutional-Grade Execution, Protection & Access
B2PRIME’s DFSA-regulated offering includes:
- Deep multi-asset liquidity with transparent pricing and demonstrable Best Execution
- Rigorous client-asset protections, including segregation, daily reconciliation, and third-party audits
- Seamless API and FIX integrations, enabling faster time-to-market for institutional desks
- Access to a secure, compliant ecosystem for FX, crypto CFDs, commodities, indices, and more
“DFSA authorisation in the DIFC is the institutional green light for our Gulf strategy,” noted Alex Tsepaev, Chief Strategy Officer of B2PRIME Group.
“It gives counterparties the governance they demand – client-asset protection, audited controls, and a trusted legal framework – while B2PRIME delivers what matters on the desk.”
