Regulatory & security

Built for regulated financial flows

Corrio separates technology, regulated payment activity, local market access and crypto services into clearly defined layers — so every payment has an identifiable contractual and regulatory path.

Client operating model

Choose the path that matches your entity

The contractual model is determined by the client type — not by the marketing name of the product.

Funding overlay

Funding method is a separate axis

Choose the funding method separately from the client model. Each path shows the responsible regulated partners.

FAQ

The compliance questions we expect first

01Does Corrio hold an LNO from the CBUAE?+

No. Where an LNO is required for an exchange-house relationship, it is obtained by the Licensed Person / client. Corrio’s own status must be described separately and accurately.

02Does Corrio provide UAE payment accounts directly?+

Only if and when the applicable Corrio entity holds the required permission. Otherwise, account and payment services are provided by a licensed partner or provider of record.

03Does Corrio custody client crypto?+

Client-facing crypto custody and conversion are provided only through the relevant licensed virtual-asset partner where that funding method is available.

04Is stablecoin the product the end customer buys?+

No. Corrio’s proposition is a cross-border payment and settlement service; stablecoins can be used inside the settlement architecture where legally and operationally permitted.

05Are all corridors covered by the same licence?+

No. Local payout, collection, FX and payment permissions are corridor-specific and are handled through the relevant local regulated entities and partners.

06Are funds and technology held by the same Corrio entity?+

Not necessarily. The structure distinguishes the technology layer, regulated payment entity and local licensed providers for the specific flow.
