How OFZA Protects Your Assets

Nothing’s more important to us than the safety of your assets. We’ve built our platform around a ‘security-first’ principle. This guide explains exactly how we segregate and safeguard your money and virtual assets under the strict, regulation-driven framework of VARA.

Segregation of Client Assets

• All client money is held in separate, designated Client Money Accounts (CMAs).
• These accounts are clearly identified and used solely for client funds.
• Client virtual assets are kept separate from OFZA’s own assets.

Safeguarding & No Rehypothecation

• OFZA does not reuse or repledge client assets.
• Rehypothecation occurs only with explicit, prior client consent.

Client-Centric Approach

• OFZA maintains client choices and preferences, supporting transparent asset handling.

Regulatory Compliance

• All practices comply with VARA Rules and applicable UAE regulations.

Operational Procedures

• Timely deposit: Funds deposited into client accounts are subject to bank clearance and operational timing.
• UAE clients: Funds deposited directly to third-party UAE banks.
• International clients: Funds received abroad are transferred to UAE banks within 24 hours.

The bottom line’s simple: your money is held in separate Client Money Accounts, completely isolated from our own. We never reuse or re-pledge your assets. They’re yours and yours alone, protected at all times.
