EmCoin launches app combining crypto, stocks and commodities
EmCoin becomes first UAE-approved platform for regulated crypto services
Emirates Coin Investment (EmCoin), based in Abu Dhabi, has become the first company authorized by the UAE Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) to offer fully regulated virtual asset services.
According to Cointelegraph, the new EmCoin platform integrates cryptocurrency, stocks, and commodities within a single regulated system and may become a model for other developers.
Thanks to EmCoin’s unified approach, investors can access cryptocurrencies, UAE and global stocks, commodities, and professionally managed portfolios through one secure and transparent mobile app. This simplifies investing by eliminating the need for multiple accounts and offers clarity and trust for both new and experienced investors.
For the UAE financial sector, the launch of EmCoin represents a major step forward, setting a new standard for accessibility, security, and innovation in global markets.
In addition, working with the UAE regulator, the platform connects regulated initial coin offerings (ICOs) with potential investors, enabling fundraising opportunities and early-stage investment access.
Who can use EmCoin?
EmCoin’s SCA license is primarily focused on UAE-based clients. International access depends on the platform’s full rollout and local regulations. However, EmCoin could expand globally if the platform meets compliance standards across regions.
Already, its approach—centered on crypto, stock markets, and commodities—is drawing attention and may be replicated by other players in the U.S., Europe, and Asia.
The platform simplifies investing for retail users, removing the need for multiple accounts and offering a wide range of investment avenues, including expert-managed portfolios and regulated ICOs—allowing for independent, diversified investing.
