UAE Prudential Rules and Regulatory Reporting

The detailed requirements can be quite complex and many organisations have faced challenges in ensuring compliance with these prudential regulations.

The regulations typically cover the following areas:

• calculation of the component elements of eligible capital resources
• calculation of the component elements of requisite capital requirements
• ensuring reports are properly prepared and submitted with the correct frequency
• requirements such as documentation and policies and procedures
• the relationship between risk and capital and ensuring the business has sufficient capital given the risks of its business model (IRAP and ICAAP processes)
• the risk of failing to complete, or inadequately completing, prudential returns can not only lead to routine fines but also alert the regulator to possible internal failures at an organisation.
