OpenAssets Launches Middle East Headquarters in Abu Dhabi Global Market and Joins Hub71

OpenAssets Middle East gives institutions in the region a local partner for OpenAssets' "markets-in-a-box" platform, under a common law framework they already recognize.

ABU DHABI, UAE, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- OpenAssets, a leading digital asset infrastructure provider, today announced the incorporation of OpenAssets Middle East Limited ("OpenAssets Middle East") in Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and its entry into Hub71, Abu Dhabi's global tech ecosystem. OpenAssets Middle East will work with institutions and governments across the region.

OpenAssets provides institutions with the infrastructure and operating system to build, operate and scale modern financial markets. The company's adaptable "markets-in-a-box" platform brings together tokenized asset issuance, settlement, compliance, asset management and distribution within a unified technology stack.

OpenAssets' network includes ICE, the largest exchange; AWS, the largest cloud provider; Tether, the largest stablecoin issuer; World Bank's IFC, the largest development institution; Itaú, Latin America's largest financial institution, along with KraneShares and many other leading institutions.

For institutions evaluating tokenization infrastructure, the legal system behind a counterparty is a crucial part of the decision. ADGM applies English common law directly and has its own independent courts, a framework that international counterparties, institutional investors and banks already recognize. OpenAssets Middle East is registered with the ADGM Registration Authority as a private company limited by shares under the ADGM Companies Regulations 2020.

"Institutions across the Middle East are modernizing how their assets are issued, settled and managed, and they want infrastructure partners that operate locally and independently under a legal framework they recognize," said Gabor Gurbacs, Chairman and CEO of OpenAssets. "OpenAssets Middle East brings our platform to the region under ADGM's common law framework, creating a practical foundation for compliant and scalable capital markets in the region."

"OpenAssets' decision to establish a Middle East presence in Abu Dhabi reflects the growing appeal of the emirate as a destination for global technology companies," said Mohammed Al Khoori, Head of Startup Journey and Communications at Hub71. "This marks an important step for the company in the region, and through Hub71+ Digital Assets, we are committed to helping OpenAssets build strategic partnerships, unlock commercial opportunities and scale its operations from Abu Dhabi into regional and global markets."

Through Hub71 and its Hub71+ Digital Assets ecosystem, OpenAssets Middle East will work with Abu Dhabi's investors, corporates and government partners.
