Fresh in the current trading session. It maps to a high-priority topic hub.
Arab Global Crypto Exchange (AGCX), a CMA-licensed Virtual Assets platform, will open for trading on September 10, 2026, giving UAE residents and eligible users in supported jurisdictions a locally regulated platform to access and trade virtual assets.
AGCX is launching with a simple idea: making it easier for users in the UAE to move between AED and digital assets without relying on offshore exchanges. Users will be able to deposit AED directly from UAE bank accounts, trade major digital assets, and make crypto deposits and withdrawals with zero AGCX platform fees.
Making AED-to-Crypto SimplerThe UAE has emerged as an important regional hub for virtual assets, while moving between AED and digital assets can still be challenging for local users. Many regional users continue to rely on offshore exchanges that do not offer native AED support and may involve additional currency conversion costs and foreign regulatory considerations.
At launch, verified users will be able to deposit AED through UAE bank transfers, complete digital KYC onboarding, and trade spot, futures and options through AGCX’s mobile and web platforms. The exchange will also support crypto deposits and withdrawals across supported assets with zero AGCX platform fees on transfers.
Regulatory FoundationAGCX operates under a license issued by the Capital Markets Authority (CMA), formerly known as the Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA).
The platform’s operations, including KYC onboarding, transaction monitoring and custody procedures, are designed to meet applicable UAE anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CTF) requirements.
At LaunchAGCX will offer:
- Spot, futures and options trading across major digital asset pairs
- Direct AED deposits from UAE bank accounts
- Regulator-compliant crypto deposits and withdrawals
- Zero AGCX platform fees on crypto deposits and withdrawals
- Staking for supported crypto assets
- Launchpad access for selected new token listings
- Web and mobile trading platforms
Leadership
Mr. Satish Gogia – Founder & Chairman
A Chartered Accountant with over 40 years of experience in capital markets, commodities and financial technology, Mr. Gogia founded Gogia Capital Services Ltd. and established Arab Global Commodities DMCC in Dubai, where he built a market-making business on the Dubai Gold & Commodities Exchange (DGCX).
Founder’s Quote
“The UAE has done a lot to build a clear and progressive framework for digital assets. What we saw was an opportunity to make the experience simpler for people here.
Users should not have to move their money offshore just to access digital assets. With AGCX, we want to give them a straightforward way to deposit AED, trade and manage their assets through a platform built for the UAE market.
We are starting with the fundamentals — AED access, transparent custody, strong compliance and a simple fee structure. We believe trust is built over time through how a platform operates, not simply through what it says.”
- Mr. Satish Gogia, Founder & CEO, AGCX
