Fintech: cryptoassets – navigating a fragmented legal framework
Implementing your cryptoasset solutions: how we can help
Introducing cryptoasset services means handling complex legal questions in a continuously changing regulatory environment. This in turn requires a multidisciplinary approach that considers areas such as financial regulation, capital markets, tax, intellectual property and litigation.
The cross-border nature of cryptoassets also requires a multijurisdictional perspective to ensure that any implementation complies with the regimes in all relevant jurisdictions, which can be difficult where such regimes are inconsistent and may conflict. Managing these complexities in a pragmatic way is where Freshfields can help.
Our global team combines deep knowledge and experience of the financial services industry and regulatory authorities with specialist expertise to provide high quality, practical advice.
