DFSA in MoU with French regulator

The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Autorité des marchés financiers of France (AMF), the French securities regulator.

The MoU was signed by Paul Koster, Chief Executive of the DFSA, and M Jean-Pierre Jouyet, Chairman of the AMF.

"As a result of this signing, the DFSA now has a bi-lateral and multi-lateral MoU network with 90 regulators across the globe, which underlines the importance of effective co-ordination and co-operation," Koster said.

The AMF is France's independent public body responsible for safeguarding investments in financial instruments and in all other savings and investment vehicles, for ensuring that investors receive material information, and for maintaining orderly financial markets.
