本周一，迪拜金融服务管理局（后文简称DFSA）宣布，七家金融科技创企进入监管沙盒候选名单，并有机会申请创新测试许可证（ITL）。
近些年来，金融科技不断发展，技术的革新也让中东地区的监管机构认识到了改革的需要。
为推动金融科技发展，DFSA宣布监管沙盒机制，允许入选企业申请ITL，并在迪拜国际金融中心进行产品测试。
DFSA表示，本次沙盒计划从2018年11月开始开放，截至目前已经收到了多个领域的创企申请，包括绿色融资、债券数字化、智能合约、中小企业融资、智能投顾、股票与债券发行代币化等等。
DFSA表示，预计将在2019年3月颁发第一批许可证。

The Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) announced on Monday it has accepted seven new firms into its cohort process, which permits companies to apply for an Innovation Testing Licence (ITL).
According to DFSA, the ITL forms part of the DFSA’s commitment to support innovation and the development of financial technology by enabling successful applicants to test their FinTech solutions in and from the DIFC. With the pace of technological development in the financial services sector, fintech continues to have a significant impact on the financial services industry in the Middle East and beyond.
DFSA reported a great variety of applications was received from firms wanting to be part of this latest cohort, launched in November 2018. These applications encompassed a range of innovative, technology-driven solutions and products including green financing; the digitization of bond and sukuk issuances using smart contracts; SME funding platforms; robo-advisors for Islamic finance; and the tokenization of equities and debt issuances.
DFSA added that after being accepted into the DFSA’s latest cohort, successful firms are now invited to apply for an ITL. The DFSA expects to grant the first batch of licenses in March 2019.
