The number of companies licensed by the AIFC Financial Services Authority (AFSA) doubled to 46 in 2021. In 2021, the AFSA issued a license to an Islamic bank and an Islamic finance company for the first time in its history. 
The AIFC Court and the International Arbitration Center have resolved more than 1,000 disputes in 2021.
