  • RPP 9-2 RPP 9-2 DFSA's Power to Issue Relief

    • RPP 9-2-1

      The DFSA may, on the application or with the consent of a person, direct that its Rules:

      (a) do not apply to a person; or
      (b) do apply to a person but with such modifications as are set out in a notice issued by the DFSA for this purpose.2

      2 Article 25 of the Regulatory Law 2004.

    • RPP 9-2-2

      Usually such a person is an Authorised Person, but this may not necessarily be the case. For example, in the case of an Offer of Securities the Issuer may apply for relief from the MKT Rules.

    • RPP 9-2-3

      The DFSA, in addition to waiving or modifying Rules, has the power to waive or modify Articles of the Markets Law 20123. This power would typically only be exercised where practicality conflicts with a provision of the law and the associated risks are adequately addressed by alternative arrangements put in place by the applicant.
