Firms working with cryptoassets are faced with a significant regulatory change with the introduction of the new FSMA regime, which goes live in October 2027. It is a shift from the current registration under the MLR regime and brings with it numerous challenges and novel requirements.
While the timeline for authorisation appears generous, many firms will be competing for attention from the FCA’s small team of experts. Early preparation is essential.
In this webinar, Rebecca Thorpe, Ian Morton, Linh Nguyen and Samee Hussain guided you through the key considerations for becoming a FSMA-authorised cryptoassets firm, including:
- Critical points in the timeline
- Regulatory requirements that will be new to crypto firms and what the FCA will be expecting
- Challenges that firms are likely to face
- What a good application looks like
