United Arab Emirates · GRCE Advisory & Training
Governance, risk, compliance and ethics advisory for UAE organisations
ABMS supports UAE organisations across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the wider Emirates with practical advisory and training in anti-bribery, AML, whistleblowing, information security, AI governance, sustainability and ISO-based management systems.
The UAE continues to position itself as a global business, finance, technology and innovation hub. As organisations expand across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the wider Emirates, expectations around governance, risk, compliance, ethics, information security, AI governance, sustainability and AML/CFT controls continue to grow.
ABMS helps organisations build practical compliance capability through advisory support, implementation guidance and professional training designed for boards, senior management, compliance officers, risk managers, internal auditors, finance teams, HR teams and operational leaders.
Aligned with Dubai D33
Supporting governance and compliance readiness for Dubai D33 growth
Dubai's economic agenda creates opportunities for regional and international businesses — and growth brings higher expectations around governance, ethical conduct, risk management, data protection, sustainability and regulatory readiness. ABMS helps UAE organisations strengthen the controls behind that growth.
- Governance, accountability and anti-bribery controls
- AML/CFT awareness and risk management
- Information security and AI governance
- Sustainability/ESG controls and internal audit readiness

Does ABMS provide UAE legal advice?
No. ABMS provides governance, risk, compliance, ethics, ISO implementation and training support. Our services are advisory and training-based and do not constitute legal advice. Where legal interpretation is required, organisations should consult qualified local legal counsel.
Can ABMS deliver ISO 37001 and AI governance training in Dubai?
Yes — public or in-house across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the wider Emirates, including ISO 37001 (anti-bribery), ISO/IEC 27001 (information security) and ISO/IEC 42001 (AI management systems), plus AML/CFT and whistleblowing training.
How does ABMS align with Dubai D33?
We use Dubai's D33 economic agenda as the commercial context for stronger governance and compliance — helping organisations build the anti-bribery, risk, information-security and sustainability controls that growth demands. ABMS is not formally endorsed by D33.
