Islamic (swap-free) account for UAE traders

Because Vscapital has no UAE licence on record, the CMA cannot intervene in a dispute. None of the recorded regulators is strict-tier, so recourse is limited. The CMA periodically publishes warnings about unlicensed platforms marketing to UAE residents; check its list before depositing.
