Dubai’s VARA, Securitize Sign Tokenization MoU

Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority, or VARA, oversees the emirate’s virtual-asset sector, while Securitize provides regulated infrastructure for tokenized securities and real-world assets. Their cooperation underscores Dubai’s effort to attract institutional participation by pairing tokenization technology with clearer oversight and a framework for compliant digital financial products.

VARA and Securitize have signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a framework for regulated tokenization initiatives across Dubai and the wider United Arab Emirates. The parties plan to support institutional adoption and the development of digital-asset infrastructure. The available report did not disclose the signing date, financial terms, specific products or a timetable for implementation.
