UAE’s Digital Asset Market Gains New VARA-Compliant Exchange Platform From Antier

3 Min Read

Antier has launched a white-label cryptocurrency exchange platform designed to meet the regulatory standards of Dubai’s Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA), targeting financial institutions across the UAE and the wider MENA region. The new offering provides a compliant architecture for banks, brokers, and fintechs looking to enter the regulated digital asset market.

A Unified Platform for a Regulated Market

Developed in alignment with the VARA framework, the platform offers an integrated suite of services essential for modern digital finance. It includes a spot and over-the-counter (OTC) trading engine, native real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation and issuance rails, and institutional-grade custody and settlement controls.

The solution is also equipped with modules for stablecoin remittance and high-value transfers, alongside GCC banking and fiat connectivity. To cater to regional needs, it provides Sharia-aligned market configuration options as well as robust privacy and transaction control mechanisms, allowing institutions to launch comprehensive digital asset exchanges with operational readiness.

Tapping into a Booming Market

The launch is timed to coincide with significant growth in the UAE’s regulated crypto sector. VARA-aligned virtual asset service providers in Dubai have recently recorded approximately $681 billion in trading turnover, signaling strong market liquidity and institutional participation.

Furthermore, tokenised real-world asset initiatives are rapidly expanding across the Gulf region. This trend creates a demand for exchange platforms that can support both the trading of digital assets and the compliant issuance of new tokenised assets within a single, unified environment.

An Institutional-Grade Solution

The platform is engineered to address the specific needs of financial institutions operating within the UAE’s structured regulatory landscape.

“The UAE is establishing one of the world’s most structured regulatory environments for institutional digital-asset markets, where exchanges are expected to support both trading and compliant asset issuance within a single venue,” said Gagan Singh, VP CeFi at Antier.

“Our VARA-ready white label exchange software is designed for this evolution, enabling financial institutions in the region to operate regulated digital-asset marketplaces with integrated tokenisation, custody, and cross-border value transfer capabilities.”
