Compliance and Cybersecurity Program for Crypto Lender

Objective

Setup and outsourced compliance operations for thousands of users and millions of dollars in assets.

Background

A global innovator in the use of blockchain and cryptocurrency holdings needed support to ensure two core elements of its business. First, as both a lender and a custodian of assets, it needed to meet the compliance requirements of the many national and local jurisdictions where it operates. Second, it required a cybersecurity approach to meet global financial standards.

Challenges

  • Operating in the world of cryptocurrencies creates potentially higher degrees of risk in the prevention of money laundering.

  • The client’s business model and global scope required a complex regulatory structure across countries and, in the U.S., individual states.

  • Operating globally also entails adopting and complying with data protection and data security best practices.

  • The client works with a wide range of affiliates and distribution partners as well as customers of its white label solution.
