Outsourced Services for DIFC and ADGM-Regulated Firms
DIFC and ADGM Outsourced Services
In today’s dynamic regulatory environment, maintaining robust compliance, AML, risk, and finance frameworks is essential for regulated entities. At VelthRad Consultants, we recognise that setting up and scaling these critical functions in-house can be both time-consuming and cost-prohibitive, particularly in tightly regulated jurisdictions like the DIFC and ADGM. Our Outsourced Services offering is designed to provide high-quality, flexible support tailored to the specific regulatory needs of financial firms. Whether your requirement is short-term coverage or long-term continuity, we offer seamless solutions that ensure you remain aligned with regulatory expectations at every stage.
Compliance Oversight and Support
With evolving regulatory standards and heightened scrutiny, compliance is more than just a checkbox, it is the foundation of a firm’s integrity and long-term viability. VelthRad offers outsourced compliance solutions that range from providing Registered Compliance Officers to ongoing compliance monitoring and advisory. Our consultants stay up to date with DFSA and FSRA regulations, helping you interpret, implement, and maintain compliant frameworks while supporting your internal teams or acting as a fully outsourced function.
AML Framework Implementation
Anti-Money Laundering (AML) obligations are non-negotiable for regulated entities in the DIFC and ADGM. We provide MLRO and advisory support to help you build and maintain a robust AML/CFT framework, including the development of risk-based policies, transaction monitoring programs, and staff training. Our MLRO services are tailored to align with local laws and best practices, ensuring your firm meets its regulatory obligations while protecting its reputation.
Risk Management Solutions
Effective risk management goes hand in hand with business sustainability. VelthRad’s outsourced risk solutions help firms proactively identify, assess, and mitigate operational, financial, and regulatory risks. We assist with the design of tailored risk frameworks, internal risk reporting, and control testing. Whether you need a DFSA/FSRA-approved Risk Officer or strategic advisory on your risk profile, our consultants bring industry expertise that balances governance with business growth.
Finance and Regulatory Reporting
Our finance function support extends beyond bookkeeping; we provide strategic financial oversight tailored for regulated entities. From preparing regulatory capital calculations and prudential returns to internal financial planning, budgeting, and expense tracking, our team ensures financial transparency and regulatory compliance. We also support the preparation of annual business plans and financial submissions to regulators, providing CFO-level insight where needed.
Independent Director
VelthRad offers Independent Director services to strengthen corporate governance and ensure regulatory alignment for firms operating in DIFC and ADGM. Our professionals bring over two decades of hands-on experience, having led the setup and day-to-day operations of banks and financial institutions from the ground up. They are well-versed in navigating complex regulatory landscapes and have worked closely with authorities such as the DFSA (Dubai Financial Services Authority), MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore), FINMA (Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority), and the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority, UK). With this deep-rooted expertise, our Independent Directors provide objective oversight, strategic input, and a commitment to upholding the highest standards of integrity and fiduciary responsibility.
