Under CISI UAE Financial Rules and Regulations governing market operations, if an error in the final cash settlement price of an equity index is discovered more than 30 minutes after publication, the Exchange will not make any correction. This rule limits the window for price correction to maintain market certainty and finality of settlements. After the 30-minute threshold, the published price stands as final, protecting contractual certainty and operational stability. While the provider may acknowledge errors, no re- determination or liability adjustment occurs post-deadline. This policy aligns with international exchange practices designed to minimize market disruption.

Under the UAE Anti-Money Laundering (AML) laws and regulations, financial institutions are required to periodically test the effectiveness of their internal policies, controls, and procedures designed to combat money laundering. The independent audit function is specifically responsible for testing and evaluating these AML frameworks. The independent auditor must assess whether the institution's systems and procedures effectively detect, prevent, and report suspicious transactions and activities. This audit ensures that the policies are up-to-date, comprehensive, and compliant with both local and international standards. Regular audits provide an additional layer of scrutiny, ensuring that financial institutions can demonstrate their commitment to preventing money laundering and terrorist financing.

On the Dubai Financial Market (DFM), a good-till-cancelled (GTC) order remains active and available for execution until explicitly cancelled by the investor who placed it. This means the investor maintains control over the order's lifespan, allowing it to persist through trading sessions unless they choose to withdraw it.
Brokers or clearing members do not have authority to unilaterally cancel GTC orders, ensuring investor autonomy. The market committee also does not intervene in the cancellation of individual orders under normal circumstances. This design supports investor flexibility and orderly market functioning.

7.3.2 (2023).

The contract size for the MSCI India Index Futures (INR) contract is defined as 50 index points x price. This means that each contract is linked to the movement of 50 index points, and the value of each index point is multiplied by the price of the index. The contract size reflects the amount of exposure an investor takes on when trading in this futures contract, and the multiplier is set to provide a manageable level of risk and exposure to market fluctuations. This standardization allows traders to gauge the value of their positions and facilitates liquidity in the futures market.

According to the Corporate Governance Guide for public joint-stock companies, board members are automatically allowed to accept gifts up to a maximum value of AED 300. This limit is set to ensure that the acceptance of gifts does not raise concerns about conflicts of interest or unethical conduct. By establishing a cap on the value of acceptable gifts, the guide aims to promote transparency and prevent any undue influence on the decision-making process of board members. This helps maintain the integrity of the corporate governance framework and fosters trust among stakeholders.
