UAE-regulated Virtual Asset Service Provider, OFZA Fintech Virtual Asset Exchange LLC (OFZA) has joined the Dubai Digital Asset Association (D2A2), signing a non-binding MoU to support its role as a neutral platform for the UAE’s growing virtual asset sector.
Under the agreement, OFZA will contribute operational insights, institutional experience, and active participation in D2A2-led initiatives, including industry working groups, forums, and knowledge-sharing programs. The engagement focuses strictly on ecosystem coordination and collaboration, without any commercial activity, product development, or client-facing services.
The move comes as the country’s virtual asset ecosystem continues to expand and diversify, highlighting the importance of coordinated dialogue, shared knowledge, and continuity of experience in driving sustainable sector development. D2A2 serves as a key forum, bringing together operators, developers, and stakeholders to facilitate informed discussions and collective learning.
Amir Tabch, CEO of OFZA said that, “Industry ecosystems mature when participants move beyond individual perspectives and invest in shared understanding.” “Joining D2A2 reflects our commitment to contributing practical experience and institutional knowledge to industry dialogue, ensuring lessons learned are carried forward and the ecosystem develops coherently over time,” Tabch added.
Saqr Ereiqat, Secretary General of D2A2, noted that, “D2A2’s mission is to provide a neutral platform for collaboration and dialogue across the digital asset industry. Engagement from regulated members such as OFZA strengthens discussions and helps deliver more informed, coordinated outcomes for the ecosystem.”
The non-binding MoU formalizes OFZA’s support for D2A2’s coordination and dialogue initiatives. Any future activities beyond this scope will be considered separately and aligned with applicable regulatory frameworks.
Through the collaboration, D2A2 reinforces its role as a convening platform for the UAE’s virtual asset industry, while OFZA contributes to ecosystem development by sharing expertise, supporting institutional memory, and participating constructively in shaping the sector’s future.
