Advancing Digital Trade: Insights from the UAE TradeTech Regulatory Sandbox
This paper documents how eight global innovators tested digital trade tools—AI credit assessments, blockchain documentation, verifiable identities, tokenized guarantees, and stablecoin settlements—alongside UAE regulators. Results showed drastic efficiency gains: document processing dropped from days to hours, credit decisions from weeks to minutes, and settlement delays eliminated. Policy recommendations highlight MLETR adoption, decentralized identity frameworks, and clearer rules for digital guarantees and tokenized finance.
