“Over the past five years, the UAE has focused on building robust infrastructure for exchanges and broker-dealer solutions, and regulators have done an exceptional job in creating a world-class ecosystem,” said George Mouawad, Middle East General Manager at Lionsoul. “We are now entering the next phase of digital asset adoption, one centered on wealth and asset management for long-term believers in this space. We believe Lionsoul is uniquely positioned to help lead this evolution, offering tailored strategies and trusted partnerships for clients who seek greater portfolio sophistication.”
