Independent Confirmation Pack | InvestArab
Direct third-party verification guide: what reviewers can verify independently (CMA register, MOCI CR, MISA, RDAP, BscScan) vs operator-asserted claims.
InvestArab is a trading name of Arab Investment Company K.S.C.C. (AIC), which holds a licence from the Capital Markets Authority of Kuwait — licence AP/2016/0001 — covering custody, securities brokerage (not exchange-registered), portfolio management, collective investment schemes, investment advice, investment control and subscription agency. Scope note: the CMA has not licensed virtual-asset services in Kuwait (Circular No. 10 of 2023, 17 July 2023); the digital-asset features therefore sit outside the CMA's virtual-asset perimeter and are not covered by a dedicated virtual-asset licence. Established 2006 (Commercial Registration 117720, capital >USD 50,000,000). AIC states that securities client assets are held 1:1 in segregated custody under CMA Kuwait Book 5. Actual segregation has not been independently attested; this securities licence does not cover custodial crypto wallets. Official register record: CMA Kuwait Public Register.

Kuwait CMA Circular No. 10 of 2023 (17 July 2023) prohibits virtual asset activities within Kuwait. The platform operator asserts regional cross-border servicing; however, no cross-border exemption exists under Kuwait CMA rules for virtual assets, and providing digital-asset services across borders sits outside the CMA licence perimeter and requires qualified legal review in each client jurisdiction.

Claims requiring independent corporate confirmation
Written confirmation from Arab Investment Company K.S.C.C. via arabinv.com corporate channels, or a current MOCI registry extract for CR 117720.. Obtain AIC contact details independently from the CMA register or a current official registry extract; platform-published inboxes alone do not prove the link.
AUSD deployer: 0x72742A7323fde43240f1A80617cdD888A0a90DB6. Link to operator: Historical deployer record — token retired 2026-10-20; no new issuance. Corporate confirmation: compliance@investarab.com.. No deployer signature is published. A signature would establish key control; the AIC corporate link also requires independently obtained corporate confirmation.
AUSD is a rebasing token: total supply adjusts dynamically while per-unit value targets the $1.00 peg. Source-code verification: true. Contract audit status: none submitted. Verified code does not establish backing or solvency.
The collateral is a project-issued token configured as USDT, distinct from canonical BSC USDT; its dollar value and backing are operator-stated and not independently attested. The $1.00 accounting value is not a promise of dollar redemption. AUSD was withdrawn from sale on 20 October 2026; new issuance is stopped and only AUSD to USDT redemption remains available.
AIC states that securities client assets are held 1:1 in segregated custody under CMA Kuwait Book 5. Actual segregation has not been independently attested; this securities licence does not cover custodial crypto wallets. Actual bank and wallet segregation, liabilities and reserve backing require independent records or attestation.
Kuwait CR 117720 and reported capital >USD 50,000,000 require a current MOCI registry extract or audited accounts. A corporate website is not a MOCI registry verification.
Investarab (LLC): MISA IR 24926271701, registered (validity date subject to MISA confirmation). Regional corporate presence only; not the operator or a financial licence.
