Coinbase has received a Financial Services Permission (FSP) from the FSRA of ADGM to arrange deals in investments and provide custody to facilitate the launch of tokenized securities. The tokenized securities registered and issued in ADGM are fully backed by underlying shares under FSRA supervision, with verified token holders receiving full shareholder rights including dividends and voting. Every transfer is subject to ongoing sanctions screening, with the ability to freeze or seize assets at wallet level where required. This launch is part of Coinbase's broader commitment to the UAE, establishing a hub for tokenized securities and onchain capital markets in Abu Dhabi and a global hub for derivatives in Dubai.
