Our weekly read on the UAE Open Finance ecosystem, drawn straight from the Observatory and the Ecosystem Watch. Every figure below is computed from public data — the trust-framework directory and the Al Tareq platform’s own logs — with our methodology in the open.
The registry
12 of 27 production directory registrations publish an active authorization server with an issuer. This is published metadata, not verified service availability or traffic.
1 registry change this week:
- 2 Oct — Standard Chartered joined the production registry (LFI)
Ecosystem activity
Ecosystem Watch observation: 2026-10-05; source data through 2026-09-29.
- 1,011,740 cumulative API calls across 2025-11 through 2026-08, excluding partial September 2026
- Payment success 96% and API error rate 23.5%, across completed months
- 16 LFIs and 16 TPPs with successful traffic in the source’s last two completed months
These are cumulative and period-based measures, not activity during the digest week. Changes between observation totals are not reported as weekly growth.
Wording corrected on 8 October 2026 to clarify registrations and reporting windows. The original observed figures are unchanged.
