CERTIFICATIONS & AUDITS

FAQ

Security questions

How are assets held?

Client assets are held with regulated third-party custodians and segregated from Arc’s operating accounts.

What is on-chain transparency?

Balances, transactions, and distributions can be independently verified on public blockchain records rather than relying only on Arc’s reporting.

Who audits the smart contracts?

Independent security firms review smart contracts before deployment, with findings tracked through Arc’s certification and audit process.

How does Sharia governance work?

Independent Islamic finance scholars review product structures, sector screens, and profit-sharing mechanics before launch and on an ongoing basis.

Are returns guaranteed?

No. Returns vary with market conditions and product performance; security controls reduce operational risk but cannot remove investment risk.
