The Abu Dhabi Judicial Department (ADJD) has announced it began activating the electronic connection between the Enforcement Division and the UAE central bank, within the aim of expediting the processes to facilitate the procedures for both the court users and employees.
Youssef Saeed Al Abri, Undersecretary of the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department, said that the electronic connection between the ADJD and the central bank is part of the efforts to achieve the speedy completion of operations related to the enforcement of court decisions on financial transactions.
Al Abri explained that this electronic connection has many advantages, including saving time and effort to re-enter the data of the enforcement file and the parties’ details in the central bank’s system, which contributes to the rapid completion of many transactions that may take several months to complete without this tool, in addition to allowing the receipt of electronic and automatic responses from the banks on the decisions that concern them directly.
The electronic connection mechanism, he said, also allows for the notification of parties involved through decision follow up systems, which contributes to the accurate and efficient enforcement of decisions in a short period of time, while it used to take several days, in addition to the establishment of an accurate database of the central bank’s decisions that allows for the issuance of the required reports at any time, under a digital form.
In this respect, the Undersecretary of the ADJD thanked the Governor of the UAE central bank for his support and assistance in taking this important step to ensure the sustainability of development processes and the provision of world-class services in various sectors, taking into account the desire to make the most of modern technologies and of the work of the relevant teams in charge of using them in an optimal way.
It is noteworthy that 2,986 decisions were electronically generated during the pilot phase of the connection between the enforcement division of the ADJD and the central bank, while the number of decisions approved by judges and sent to the bank reached 1,893 decisions, and 12,891 statements received from banks
regarding these decisions.
