About Supervision

About Supervision

• We are committed to promoting the integrity and soundness of AIFC's financial system. In supervising regulated firms, we aim to prevent, detect and restrain conduct that may cause damage to the reputation of AIFC.

• Applying a risk-based approach to supervision, our interactions with firms are designed to be proportionate to their size, complexity and the types of regulated activities conducted.

• We aim for an open, transparent and co-operative relationship with regulated firms, maintaining an on-going dialogue with the firm’s senior management in order to remain updated in terms of the firm’s financial position and business activities.

• AFSA also seeks to reinforce the responsibility of senior management for the culture, behaviour and governance of the firm, to ensure financial soundness, fair dealing and compliance with regulatory standards.
