Blockchain Analytics Firm Elliptic Announces Regional Headquarters in the UAE

Elliptic, the enabler of sophisticated blockchain analytics and digital asset risk management, has announced the launch of its regional headquarters in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), marking a key milestone in its international expansion efforts.

Elliptic is pleased to welcome Zahi Yaari as its new Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) to lead as well as scale the firm’s revenue growth in the private sector .

This latest expansion indicates UAE’s growing role in supporting digital asset regulation and Elliptic’s risk management technologies.

Over the past 11 years, Elliptic has supported blockchain analytics, setting the standard for “real-time multi-asset screening” and investigative technologies and delivering various solutions to support financial institutions, crypto-focused businesses, governments, law enforcement, as well as regulatory agencies to navigate the ecosystem of digital assets.

With the UAE emerging as one of the hus for blockchain / DLT and digital asset innovation, Elliptic’s launch of a regional headquarters in the UAE reflects its overall growth strategy for revenue expansion.

Over the past two years, the UAE has made “clear” that it wants to become a center for regulated blockchain and crypto-asset activity and enable the country to be a key player focused on financial innovation.

A vital component of enshrining that reputation has been the proactive efforts by regulators such as the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA), and Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) in implementing regulatory frameworks and token regimes for digital asset risk management, offering a model that enables businesses operating in the region to offer compliant exchange, custody, as well stablecoin issuance.

Along with this regional entrance, Elliptic has expanded its leadership team with the appointment of Zahi Yaari as Chief Revenue Officer, based out of Elliptic’s London office.

As covered, Elliptic is the global enabler of crypto-asset risk management solutions for crypto businesses, financial institutions, and government agencies.

Reportedly backed by investors such as AlbionVC, Evolution Equity Partners, J.P. Morgan, Octopus Ventures, Paladin Capital, Santander Innoventures, SBI Group, SignalFire, SoftBank, and Wells Fargo, Elliptic has assessed risks on transactions worth “several trillion dollars,” uncovering activities related to money laundering, terrorist fundraising, fraud, and other financial crimes.

With head offices in London, Elliptic reportedly maintains additional business locations in major global jurisdictions such as New York, Singapore, Tokyo, and now the United Arab Emirates.
