Two Dubai judges to join DFSA

"Ali Shamis Mohamed Shamis Al Madhani and Omar Juma Mohamed Saif Al Fejeer Al Muhairi, will add a vital layer of legal knowledge to the DFSA team. Their expertise in local issues and the application of the UAE and Dubai legislation will prove invaluable to the DFSA," Al Mulla said.

He said as the DFSA grows in both size and responsibility now that the DIFC is open for business, the need for talented and experienced staff grows. "Both of them will spend the first new months in the different DFSA departments on a rotational basis in order to develop an in-depth understanding of the authority's role and activities," Al Mulla said.

David King, acting chief executive of the DFSA, said the authority would continue to recruit the best expertise as it entered a new operational phase. "These appointments are yet another example of our commitment to ensure the highest standards of regulation by recruiting the best staff from around the world," he said.
