The meeting was an opportunity for the Centre’s three entities, DIFC Authority, Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) and Dispute Resolution Authority (DRA) to share their key achievements in 2018 and outline priorities for the coming year. His Highness thanked the entities for their contributions which have further elevated Dubai’s position as the region’s highest ranked global financial centre.
