DUBAI, UAE and SINGAPORE - Solas Fiduciary Services (Solas), a privately owned leader in directorships & corporate governance, has opened a new office in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). The move marks a significant milestone in Solas' strategy to strengthen its presence across key financial hubs worldwide.

The Dubai office will allow Solas to provide clients with direct access to its international expertise, delivered in the centre of the region's leading financial hub.

"We are delighted to open our new Dubai office," said Martin O'Regan, Managing Director at Solas Fiduciary Services. "This expansion enables us to extend the trusted services we already provide in Singapore and Hong Kong to clients entering the Middle East. Being in the heart of a thriving financial ecosystem and close to leading global fund managers will accelerate our growth and enhance the value we deliver."

As Asia's only privately owned pure-play directorship firm, Solas identified the Middle East as the natural next step. "Dubai's commitment to building a transparent, well-regulated onshore environment aligns seamlessly with our own values," added Director Corina Quah. "We are grateful to Salmaan Jaffery, Jonathan Beardall and Roula Omran at the DIFC Authority for their warm welcome and efficient support throughout our application process."

"Our strength lies in combining a global network with deep regional insight," O'Regan concluded. "We are committed to delivering exceptional governance, supporting existing clients across the Middle East and forging strong new partnerships."
