We also help refine product offerings, ensuring they meet institutional standards while addressing evolving regulatory and market demands.
Risk management
We bring deep expertise in risk management for crypto asset businesses, developing best practices and risk management framework across operational, technology, HR, treasury, product and third-party risk. The fast-evolving nature of digital assets requires a proactive approach to identifying and mitigating risks that differ from traditional finance.
We help firms establish robust operational risk frameworks, assess and manage technology risks, system resilience—and implement strong treasury management strategies to navigate liquidity, volatility, and counterparty exposure. Our expertise extends to HR risk, ensuring proper governance, key person dependency management, and compliance training, as well as third-party risk assessment for service providers such as custodians, liquidity providers, and infrastructure partners.
Compliance and financial crime
Our expertise in compliance and financial crime prevention for crypto goes beyond traditional frameworks, addressing the unique challenges of digital assets. We help firms design and implement robust compliance programs, covering customer onboarding, on- and off-chain transaction screening, and real-time monitoring to detect suspicious activities. Unlike traditional finance, crypto compliance requires specialized tools and skills, including blockchain analytics, wallet attribution, smart contract risk assessment, and cross-chain transaction tracking. We guide clients in selecting the right RegTech solutions, integrating them into existing workflows, and training teams to navigate the evolving regulatory landscape.
Technology and R&D
We provide specialized expertise in blockchain and crypto R&D, including DeFi, through a dedicated team focused on technology review, innovation, and implementation. Our experts assess and validate blockchain protocols, smart contract architectures, consensus mechanisms, and security models to ensure resilience, scalability, and compliance with industry standards. We conduct deep technical due diligence on DeFi protocols, tokenomics models, and interoperability solutions, helping firms navigate the complexities of on-chain finance.
Licenses and authorisation
We have deep expertise in regulatory applications for crypto asset businesses, having successfully guided firms through licensing and registration processes across multiple jurisdictions, including MICAr in the EU, the UK FCA regime, Singapore’s MAS framework, and Hong Kong’s SFC requirements or applying FATF guidelines. Navigating these evolving regulatory landscapes requires a nuanced understanding of each jurisdiction’s approach to compliance, risk management, governance, and operational requirements.
Our team has firsthand experience managing regulatory engagements, preparing applications, designing compliant frameworks, and ensuring ongoing adherence to supervisory expectations. Whether securing a VASP license, obtaining FCA registration, meeting MICAr’s stringent standards or complying with the Travel Rule, we help crypto businesses streamline the process, mitigate regulatory risks, and position themselves for long-term success in a compliant and scalable manner.
