# Notice of Amendments to Legislation: May 2026

The DFSA Board enacted amendments to its Rulebook in May 2026 following Consultation Paper No. 167, updating the General Module (GEN), Prudential Module (PIB), and Glossary Module (GLO). These rule-making instruments directly affect board-level compliance obligations and governance oversight responsibilities for all DIFC-authorised firms. For mid-market CEOs and scale-up founders, this signals the need to immediately audit internal governance frameworks against revised prudential and general conduct rules.
