In this episode of The Riffle, we unpack the DFSA’s Thematic Review on Fund Management Self-Custody in the DIFC, following strong growth in the Domestic Funds market.

With 153 Domestic Funds and 46 of them (USD 3.8B AuM) using self-custody, the review highlights both good practices and widespread weaknesses.

We cover the main gaps in policies, disclosures, conflicts of interest, and compliance oversight along with DFSA’s expectations for stronger governance and transparency going forward.
