Abu Dhabi-based Further Asset Management has adopted Chainlink market price and chart’s Automated Compliance Engine (ACE) for Anubis, a platform intended to apply configurable regulatory controls to tokenized asset transactions. The October 27 announcement said the initial deployment focuses on Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the UAE’s international financial center.

The planned framework is designed to evaluate transactions against policies linked to applicable Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) requirements before execution. Rather than relying solely on after-the-fact checks, the platform aims to make compliance decisions part of institutional digital-asset workflows.

How Anubis would use Chainlink ACE

Further said Anubis translates regulatory requirements into operational controls for digital asset issuance, ownership, trading and custody. The company identified know-your-customer (KYC), anti-money-laundering (AML), sanctions checks and related restrictions among the topics its policy rules are intended to cover.

Chainlink ACE can help evaluate a transaction under a configured policy and produce records that compliance teams can review. The announcement describes an implementation designed for ADGM rules; it does not mean regulators have certified every future transaction or that all digital assets on the platform automatically meet legal obligations.

Potential implications for institutions

Tokenized securities and other real-world assets can move quickly across networks, but regulated institutions must still establish who is allowed to hold or transfer particular products. Programmable controls may help align blockchain-based operations with identity, jurisdiction and asset-specific restrictions.

Further said it plans to extend Anubis to other jurisdictions and counterparties. A future dashboard could also provide institutions and regulators with visibility into how supported transactions are assessed against configured rules. These extensions were presented as plans, not completed deployments.

What remains unconfirmed

The companies did not disclose transaction volumes processed through Anubis, commercial customer numbers or a public rollout timetable. As a result, the announcement supports an infrastructure-development story rather than claims of proven adoption at scale.
