Interpolitan Money Secures DFSA Category 3C and 4C Licences, Expanding Its Service Offering in UAE as Part of Global Growth

Alternative banking solutions provider Interpolitan Money has been granted both a Category 3C and 4C licence by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), marking a significant milestone in the firm’s global expansion strategy and strengthening its presence in the Middle East.

The dual licences follow Interpolitan’s recent approval with FINTRAC in Canada earlier this year, alongside its original FCA licence in the UK. Gaining approval as an Authorised Firm in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) enables Interpolitan Money to broaden its financial services and advisory capabilities in one of the world’s most dynamic financial hubs.

Together, the licences enhance Interpolitan’s ability to deliver tailored solutions, originate transactions, and provide greater flexibility for clients managing complex cross-border financial needs.

Rishi Patel, Chief Executive Officer of Interpolitan Money, said:“Securing both a Category 3C and 4C licence in the DIFC is a landmark achievement for Interpolitan. It reflects our commitment to offering clients the highest standards of service under a strong regulatory framework. The UAE is a pivotal hub for international finance, and this expansion allows us to serve our clients with even greater capability, agility, and trust.”

Anoop Nair, Chief Operating Officer of Interpolitan Money, added:“The DFSA’s authorisation reinforces our vision to bridge the gap between global clients and sophisticated financial solutions. These licences provide us with the platform to scale our investment management and advisory services in the UAE, while building deeper partnerships and supporting clients navigating international transactions.”

The UAE authorisation underscores Interpolitan’s trajectory of sustained global growth. The firm has achieved 88% year-on-year growth, driven by demand for its structured, sustainable approach to alternative banking. This milestone reflects Interpolitan’s commitment to building a trusted international platform for clients navigating complex cross-border finance — powering global opportunities.
