Navigating global crypto-custody requirements

09:00 - 10:00 BST / 16:00 - 17:00 HKT
16:00 - 17:00 BST / 11:00 - 12:00 EDT

As the global crypto-economy continues to grow and mature, one area stands out as a critical core capability: custody. In this webinar, members of our global financial services team will compare notes on their jurisdiction’s approach to crypto-custody and the use of crypto-assets as collateral.

The speakers will provide their insights on a number of areas which will help both traditional custodians who are interested in the crypto space and FinTechs that focus on crypto-custody, either as their whole business or a business line. These will include:

• How does the law in your jurisdiction categorise crypto-assets and what does that mean for their custody?
• Do you need a regulatory licence to hold crypto-assets and what types of licence are possible?
• Are there any key rules that apply to crypto-custodians in your country?
• What are the key issues on using crypto-assets as collateral in your country / are there any examples of how this is working in practice?
• What do you think will be the biggest issues when trying to provide a crypto-custody service cross border to clients in multiple jurisdictions?
