Véronique holds the position of VP Group Compliance at Bitpanda & Managing Director of the German subsidiary Bitpanda Asset Management GmbH. Bitpanda is a platform that offers a wide range of assets beyond cryptocurrencies. Bitpanda is fully regulated, which is a rarity in Europe, and allows users to invest even small amounts of money.

During the conversation with Sarah, Véronique discussed the challenges of maintaining regulatory compliance, both within and outside the company. However, she also emphasized the benefits that regulation brings to customers. We also talked about topics such as diversity and liability. It was interesting to note that some people still perceive the space as anonymous, despite the fact that transactions can be traced indefinitely and the technology for doing so is constantly improving.
