Under CISI UAE Financial Rules and Regulations, firms offering ranking and advisory services in the financial sector must meet a minimum paid-up capital requirement of AED 5 million. This capital threshold ensures that such firms have sufficient financial resources to maintain operational stability, manage risks, and fulfill regulatory obligations. It also reflects the level of responsibility these firms carry in providing investment advice and rankings that impact market participants. Higher capital requirements apply to more systemically significant entities, but the AED 5 million benchmark balances accessibility and prudence for ranking and advice firms.
